Nesting-Depth Guard Bypass

Bouncy Castle for Java is vulnerable to a nesting-depth guard bypass. The vulnerability is due to forcing a lazy ASN.1 sequence resetting the nesting-depth guard, which allows an attacker to exploit deeply nested ASN.1 structures...

CVE-2026-13506: Uncontrolled Recursion

In Bouncy Castle for Java before 1.85, Lazy ASN.1 sequence forcing resets nesting-depth guard. This issue also affects Bouncy Castle for Java LTS before 2.73.12, and Bouncy Castle for Java FIPS BC-FJA before bc-fips 1.0.2.7 1.0.X series, 2.0.2 2.0.X series and 2.1.3 2.1.X series...

CVE-2019-9162

It was found that there are insufficient ASN.1 sequence length checks a.k.a. an array index error in the Linux kernel in the snmpversion and snmphelper functions in the net/ipv4/netfilter/nfnatsnmpbasicmain.c in the nfnatsnmpbasic module making out-of-bounds read and write operations possible. An...

CVE-2015-1182

The asn1getsequenceof function in library/asn1parse.c in PolarSSL 1.0 through 1.2.12 and 1.3.x through 1.3.9 does not properly initialize a pointer in the asn1sequence linked list, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service crash or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted...

Null pointer dereference

The asn1getsequenceof function in library/asn1parse.c in PolarSSL 1.0 through 1.2.12 and 1.3.x through 1.3.9 does not properly initialize a pointer in the asn1sequence linked list, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service crash or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted...

CVE-2015-1182: Undefined Security Weakness

The asn1getsequenceof function in library/asn1parse.c in PolarSSL 1.0 through 1.2.12 and 1.3.x through 1.3.9 does not properly initialize a pointer in the asn1sequence linked list, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service crash or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted...

FreeBSD : polarssl -- Remote attack using crafted certificates (a5856eba-a015-11e4-a680-1c6f65c3c4ff)

PolarSSL team reports : During the parsing of a ASN.1 sequence, a pointer in the linked list of asn1sequence is not initialized by asn1getsequenceof. In case an error occurs during parsing of the list, a situation is created where the uninitialized pointer is passed to polarsslfree. This sequence...

polarssl: remote code execution

During the parsing of a ASN.1 sequence, a pointer in the linked list of asn1sequence is not initialized by asn1getsequenceof. In case an error occurs during parsing of the list, a situation is created where the uninitialized pointer is passed to polarsslfree. This sequence can be triggered when a...
