CVE-2017-17806

The HMAC implementation crypto/hmac.c in the Linux kernel, before 4.14.8, does not validate that the underlying cryptographic hash algorithm is unkeyed. This allows a local attacker, able to use the AFALG-based hash interface CONFIGCRYPTOUSERAPIHASH and the SHA-3 hash algorithm CONFIGCRYPTOSHA3, ...

CVE-2017-17805

The Salsa20 encryption algorithm in the Linux kernel before 4.14.8 does not correctly handle zero-length inputs, allowing a local attacker able to use the AFALG-based skcipher interface CONFIGCRYPTOUSERAPISKCIPHER to cause a denial of service uninitialized-memory free and kernel crash or have...

Design/Logic Flaw

CPEs used by subscribers on the access network receive their individual configuration settings from a central GAPS instance. A CPE identifies itself by the MAC address of its WAN interface and a certain "chk" value 48bit derived from the MAC. The algorithm used to compute the "chk" was disclosed ...

Security Advisory - Use of a Risky Cryptographic Algorithm Vulnerability on Several Products

There is a use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm vulnerability on several products. The software uses risky cryptographic algorithm in SSL. This is dangerous because a remote unauthenticated attacker could use well-known techniques to break the algorithm. Successful exploit could resul...
