SSL/TLS Cryptographic Degradation Man-in-the-Middle Hijacking Vulnerability

SSL/TLS is a cryptographic application. SSL/TLS has a security vulnerability that can lead to an attack known as FREAK Factoring RSA Export Keys, which can be exploited by an attacker to reduce the level of encryption and decrypt communications through a man-in-the-middle attack...

UBUNTU-CVE-2015-0834

The WebRTC subsystem in Mozilla Firefox before 36.0 recognizes turns: and stuns: URIs but accesses the TURN or STUN server without using TLS, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to discover credentials by spoofing a server and completing a brute-force attack within a short time...

OpenJDK: incorrect tracking of ChangeCipherSpec during SSL/TLS handshake (JSSE, 8057555)

It was discovered that the SSL/TLS implementation in the JSSE component in OpenJDK failed to properly check whether the ChangeCipherSpec was received during the SSL/TLS connection handshake. An MITM attacker could possibly use this flaw to force a connection to be established without encryption...

OpenJDK: incorrect tracking of ChangeCipherSpec during SSL/TLS handshake (JSSE, 8057555)

It was discovered that the SSL/TLS implementation in the JSSE component in OpenJDK failed to properly check whether the ChangeCipherSpec was received during the SSL/TLS connection handshake. An MITM attacker could possibly use this flaw to force a connection to be established without encryption...

openssl: race condition in ssl_parse_serverhello_tlsext

A race condition was found in the way OpenSSL handled ServerHello messages with an included Supported EC Point Format extension. A malicious server could possibly use this flaw to cause a multi-threaded TLS/SSL client using OpenSSL to write into freed memory, causing the client to crash or execut...

openssl: TLS protocol downgrade attack

A flaw was found in the way OpenSSL handled fragmented handshake packets. A man-in-the-middle attacker could use this flaw to force a TLS/SSL server using OpenSSL to use TLS 1.0, even if both the client and the server supported newer protocol versions...

OpenJDK: incorrect tracking of ChangeCipherSpec during SSL/TLS handshake (JSSE, 8057555)

Wireshark TLS/SSL Decryption Denial of Service Vulnerability

Wireshark is an open source network protocol analysis tool. A denial of service vulnerability exists in Wireshark TLS/SSL because it fails to properly handle certain types of packets. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to crash the affected application and deny service to legitimate use...

OpenJDK: Triple Handshake attack against TLS/SSL connections (JSSE, 8037066)

It was discovered that the TLS/SSL implementation in the JSSE component in OpenJDK failed to properly verify the server identity during the renegotiation following session resumption, making it possible for malicious TLS/SSL servers to perform a Triple Handshake attack against clients using JSSE...

SSL/TLS: Padding Oracle On Downgraded Legacy Encryption attack

A flaw was found in the way SSL 3.0 handled padding bytes when decrypting messages encrypted using block ciphers in cipher block chaining CBC mode. This flaw allows a man-in-the-middle MITM attacker to decrypt a selected byte of a cipher text in as few as 256 tries if they are able to force a...

OpenJDK: Triple Handshake attack against TLS/SSL connections (JSSE, 8037066)

It was discovered that the TLS/SSL implementation in the JSSE component in OpenJDK failed to properly verify the server identity during the renegotiation following session resumption, making it possible for malicious TLS/SSL servers to perform a Triple Handshake attack against clients using JSSE...

Google Releases 'nogotofail' Network Traffic Security Testing Tool

Google introduced a new security tool to help developers detect bugs and security glitches in the network traffic security that may leave passwords and other sensitive information open to snooping. The open source tool, dubbed as Nogotofail, has been launched by the technology giant in sake of a...

Google Releases Nogotofail Tool to Test Network Security

The last year has produced a rogues’ gallery of vulnerabilities in transport layer security implementations and new attacks on the key protocols, from Heartbleed to the Apple gotofail flaw to the recent POODLE attack. To help developers and security researchers identify applications that are...

PT-2015-1696

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions TLS protocol versions 1.2 and earlier Description The issue concerns a problem with the TLS protocol where a DHE EXPORT ciphersuite is enabled on a server but not on a client, allowing man-in-the-middle attackers to conduct cipher-downgrade...
