CVE-2014-0625

The SSLSocket implementation in the 1 JSAFE and 2 JSSE APIs in EMC RSA BSAFE SSL-J 5.x before 5.1.3 and 6.x before 6.0.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service memory consumption by triggering application-data processing during the TLS handshake, a time at which the data is internal...

CVE-2014-0626

The 1 JSAFE and 2 JSSE APIs in EMC RSA BSAFE SSL-J 5.x before 5.1.3 and 6.x before 6.0.2 make it easier for remote attackers to bypass intended cryptographic protection mechanisms by triggering application-data processing during the TLS handshake, a time at which the data is both unencrypted and...
