Information Disclosure

firefox is vulnerable to information disclosure. The vulnerability exists as an error occurs in the elliptic curve point addition algorithm that uses mixed Jacobian-affine coordinates where it can yield a result "POINTATINFINITY" when it should not...

CVE-2017-7781

An error occurs in the elliptic curve point addition algorithm that uses mixed Jacobian-affine coordinates where it can yield a result "POINTATINFINITY" when it should not. A man-in-the-middle attacker could use this to interfere with a connection, resulting in an attacked party computing an...

CVE-2017-7781

CVE-2017-7781 affects Firefox before 55 due to an error in the elliptic-curve point addition using mixed Jacobian–affine coordinates, which can yield a spuriously computed POINT_AT_INFINITY. This could let a man‑in‑the‑middle attacker interfere with a connection and cause the affected party to co...

CVE-2017-7781/CVE-2017-10176: Issue with elliptic curve addition in mixed Jacobian-affine coordinates in Firefox/Java

tl;dr Firefox and Java suffered from a moderate vulnerability affecting the elliptic curve point addition algorithm that uses mixed Jacobian-affine coordinates where it can yield a result POINTATINFINITY when it should not. Introduction Few months ago I was working on a vulnerability affecting th...
