Issue summary: In a server or client configuration with RFC7250 Raw Public Keys (RPKs)
enabled, and only the private key (with no associated certificate) configured locally,
a NULL pointer dereference may occur when the remote peer solicits raw public keys and
also sends the typically omitted "signature_algorithms_cert" TLS extension.
Impact summary: The impact is limited to a possible Denial of Service as a result of
an application abort, no data disclosure or remote command execution are possible.
CWE: CWE-476: NULL Pointer Dereference
Description: While a passing comment in sample code in the documentation suggests
that key-only RPK configurations are supported, the best-practice RPK configuration
is to always configure a corresponding certificate (possibly self-signed or
signed by any convenient CA).
When the private key is configured along with a matching certificate, the
"signature_algorithms_cert" extension is handled reliably even without the
fix, and peer clients or servers that don't support raw public keys may be
able to complete a TLS connection by pinning or verifying the corresponding
certificate or its public key.
Deployments that prefer to configure just a private key with no certificate
need to upgrade to an updated release as noted below.
FIPS impact: no
No FIPS modules are affected by this issue, as the SSL protocol implementation
is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary.
A flaw was found in OpenSSL. In a server or client configuration with RFC7250 Raw Public Keys (RPKs) enabled, where only the private key (with no certificate) is configured, a NULL pointer dereference may occur when the remote peer solicits raw public keys and also sends the typically omitted "signature_algorithms_cert" TLS extension. This issue results in a denial of service.
Отчет
Server or client configurations with RPKs (RFC7250 Raw Public Keys) enabled, where only the private key (with no associated certificate) is configured, are vulnerable to this issue. However, key-only RPK configurations are not considered a best practice, limiting the exposure of this flaw. This issue can cause a NULL pointer dereference, resulting in a denial of service due to an application abort. There is no data disclosure or command execution. For these reasons, this vulnerability has been rated with a low severity.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
