  - Issue summary: Processing a maliciously formatted PKCS12 file may lead OpenSSL to crash leading to a
    potential Denial of Service attack Impact summary: Applications loading files in the PKCS12 format from
    untrusted sources might terminate abruptly. A file in PKCS12 format can contain certificates and keys and
    may come from an untrusted source. The PKCS12 specification allows certain fields to be NULL, but OpenSSL
    does not correctly check for this case. This can lead to a NULL pointer dereference that results in
    OpenSSL crashing. If an application processes PKCS12 files from an untrusted source using the OpenSSL APIs
    then that application will be vulnerable to this issue. OpenSSL APIs that are vulnerable to this are:
    PKCS12_parse(), PKCS12_unpack_p7data(), PKCS12_unpack_p7encdata(), PKCS12_unpack_authsafes() and
    PKCS12_newpass(). We have also fixed a similar issue in SMIME_write_PKCS7(). However since this function
    is related to writing data we do not consider it security significant. The FIPS modules in 3.2, 3.1 and
    3.0 are not affected by this issue. (CVE-2024-0727)

  - Issue summary: Parsing CMS AuthEnvelopedData or EnvelopedData message with maliciously crafted AEAD
    parameters can trigger a stack buffer overflow. Impact summary: A stack buffer overflow may lead to a
    crash, causing Denial of Service, or potentially remote code execution. When parsing CMS
    (Auth)EnvelopedData structures that use AEAD ciphers such as AES-GCM, the IV (Initialization Vector)
    encoded in the ASN.1 parameters is copied into a fixed-size stack buffer without verifying that its length
    fits the destination. An attacker can supply a crafted CMS message with an oversized IV, causing a stack-
    based out-of-bounds write before any authentication or tag verification occurs. Applications and services
    that parse untrusted CMS or PKCS#7 content using AEAD ciphers (e.g., S/MIME (Auth)EnvelopedData with AES-
    GCM) are vulnerable. Because the overflow occurs prior to authentication, no valid key material is
    required to trigger it. While exploitability to remote code execution depends on platform and toolchain
    mitigations, the stack-based write primitive represents a severe risk. The FIPS modules in 3.6, 3.5, 3.4,
    3.3 and 3.0 are not affected by this issue, as the CMS implementation is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module
    boundary. OpenSSL 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3 and 3.0 are vulnerable to this issue. OpenSSL 1.1.1 and 1.0.2 are not
    affected by this issue. (CVE-2025-15467)

  - Issue summary: Writing large, newline-free data into a BIO chain using the line-buffering filter where the
    next BIO performs short writes can trigger a heap-based out-of-bounds write. Impact summary: This out-of-
    bounds write can cause memory corruption which typically results in a crash, leading to Denial of Service
    for an application. The line-buffering BIO filter (BIO_f_linebuffer) is not used by default in TLS/SSL
    data paths. In OpenSSL command-line applications, it is typically only pushed onto stdout/stderr on VMS
    systems. Third-party applications that explicitly use this filter with a BIO chain that can short-write
    and that write large, newline-free data influenced by an attacker would be affected. However, the
    circumstances where this could happen are unlikely to be under attacker control, and BIO_f_linebuffer is
    unlikely to be handling non-curated data controlled by an attacker. For that reason the issue was assessed
    as Low severity. The FIPS modules in 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3 and 3.0 are not affected by this issue, as the BIO
    implementation is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary. OpenSSL 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3, 3.0, 1.1.1 and
    1.0.2 are vulnerable to this issue. (CVE-2025-68160)

  - Issue summary: When using the low-level OCB API directly with AES-NI or<br>other hardware-accelerated code
    paths, inputs whose length is not a multiple<br>of 16 bytes can leave the final partial block unencrypted
    and unauthenticated.<br><br>Impact summary: The trailing 1-15 bytes of a message may be exposed
    in<br>cleartext on encryption and are not covered by the authentication tag,<br>allowing an attacker to
    read or tamper with those bytes without detection.<br><br>The low-level OCB encrypt and decrypt routines
    in the hardware-accelerated<br>stream path process full 16-byte blocks but do not advance the
    input/output<br>pointers. The subsequent tail-handling code then operates on the original<br>base
    pointers, effectively reprocessing the beginning of the buffer while<br>leaving the actual trailing bytes
    unprocessed. The authentication checksum<br>also excludes the true tail bytes.<br><br>However, typical
    OpenSSL consumers using EVP are not affected because the<br>higher-level EVP and provider OCB
    implementations split inputs so that full<br>blocks and trailing partial blocks are processed in separate
    calls, avoiding<br>the problematic code path. Additionally, TLS does not use OCB ciphersuites.<br>The
    vulnerability only affects applications that call the low-level<br>CRYPTO_ocb128_encrypt() or
    CRYPTO_ocb128_decrypt() functions directly with<br>non-block-aligned lengths in a single call on hardware-
    accelerated builds.<br>For these reasons the issue was assessed as Low severity.<br><br>The FIPS modules
    in 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3, 3.2, 3.1 and 3.0 are not affected<br>by this issue, as OCB mode is not a FIPS-
    approved algorithm.<br><br>OpenSSL 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3, 3.0 and 1.1.1 are vulnerable to this
    issue.<br><br>OpenSSL 1.0.2 is not affected by this issue. (CVE-2025-69418)

  - Issue summary: Calling PKCS12_get_friendlyname() function on a maliciously crafted PKCS#12 file with a
    BMPString (UTF-16BE) friendly name containing non-ASCII BMP code point can trigger a one byte write before
    the allocated buffer. Impact summary: The out-of-bounds write can cause a memory corruption which can have
    various consequences including a Denial of Service. The OPENSSL_uni2utf8() function performs a two-pass
    conversion of a PKCS#12 BMPString (UTF-16BE) to UTF-8. In the second pass, when emitting UTF-8 bytes, the
    helper function bmp_to_utf8() incorrectly forwards the remaining UTF-16 source byte count as the
    destination buffer capacity to UTF8_putc(). For BMP code points above U+07FF, UTF-8 requires three bytes,
    but the forwarded capacity can be just two bytes. UTF8_putc() then returns -1, and this negative value is
    added to the output length without validation, causing the length to become negative. The subsequent
    trailing NUL byte is then written at a negative offset, causing write outside of heap allocated buffer.
    The vulnerability is reachable via the public PKCS12_get_friendlyname() API when parsing attacker-
    controlled PKCS#12 files. While PKCS12_parse() uses a different code path that avoids this issue,
    PKCS12_get_friendlyname() directly invokes the vulnerable function. Exploitation requires an attacker to
    provide a malicious PKCS#12 file to be parsed by the application and the attacker can just trigger a one
    zero byte write before the allocated buffer. For that reason the issue was assessed as Low severity
    according to our Security Policy. The FIPS modules in 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3 and 3.0 are not affected by this
    issue, as the PKCS#12 implementation is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary. OpenSSL 3.6, 3.5, 3.4,
    3.3, 3.0 and 1.1.1 are vulnerable to this issue. OpenSSL 1.0.2 is not affected by this issue.
