Issue summary: An attacker-controlled CMP (Certificate Management Protocol)
server could trigger a NULL pointer dereference in a CMP client application.
Impact summary: A NULL pointer dereference causes a crash of the
application and a Denial of Service.
An attacker controlling a CMP server (or acting as a man-in-the-middle) could
craft a CMP response containing a CRMF (Certificate Request Message Format)
CertRepMessage with an EncryptedValue structure where the symmAlg field
has an algorithm OID but no parameters field. When the OpenSSL CMP client
processes this response, the NULL dereference occurs, causing a crash of
the CMP client.
Applications that process untrusted CMP/CRMF messages may be affected.
The FIPS modules in 4.0, 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, and 3.0 are not affected by this
issue, as the affected code is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary.
A flaw was found in OpenSSL. An attacker controlling a Certificate Management Protocol (CMP) server, or acting as a man-in-the-middle, could craft a malicious CMP response. This response, containing a Certificate Request Message Format (CRMF) CertRepMessage with a specific malformed EncryptedValue structure, would trigger a NULL pointer dereference in the OpenSSL CMP client. This vulnerability leads to a crash of the application, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
Отчет
This is a Low severity issue. A null pointer dereference flaw in the OpenSSL Certificate Management Protocol (CMP) client could be triggered by an attacker-controlled CMP server. This could lead to a denial of service in applications that process untrusted CMP/CRMF messages.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, ensure that OpenSSL CMP client applications only communicate with trusted Certificate Management Protocol (CMP) servers. If CMP client functionality is not required, consider disabling or restricting its use to reduce exposure.
