It was discovered that mbedtls has a bounds-check bypass through an integer overflow that can be used by an attacked to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service. (CVE-2017-18187)

It was discovered that mbedtls has a vulnerability where an attacker could execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (buffer overflow) via a crafted certificate chain that is mishandled during RSASSA-PSS signature verification within a TLS or DTLS session.
(CVE-2018-0487)

It was discovered that mbedtls has a vulnerability where an attacker could execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (heap corruption) via a crafted application packet within a TLS or DTLS session. (CVE-2018-0488)

It was discovered that mbedtls has a vulnerability that allows remote attackers to achieve partial plaintext recovery (for a CBC based ciphersuite) via a timing-based side-channel attack. (CVE-2018-0497)

It was discovered that mbedtls has a vulnerability that allows local users to achieve partial plaintext recovery (for a CBC based ciphersuite) via a cache-based side-channel attack. (CVE-2018-0498).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
