Issue summary: When CMS password-based decryption (RFC 3211 / PWRI key unwrap)
processes attacker-supplied CMS data, an attacker-chosen stream-mode KEK
cipher can trigger a heap out-of-bounds read in kek_unwrap_key().
Impact summary: A heap buffer over-read may trigger a crash which leads to
Denial of Service for an application if the input buffer ends at a memory
page boundary and the following page is unmapped. There is no information
disclosure as the over-read bytes are not revealed to the attacker.
The key unwrapping function performs a check-byte test as specified in the
RFC that reads 7 bytes from a heap allocation that is based on the wrapped
key length from the message. There is a minimum length check based on the
block length of the wrapping cipher. However the cipher is selected from
an OID carried in the attacker's PWRI keyEncryptionAlgorithm with no
requirement that the cipher be a block cipher. When an attacker selects
a stream-mode cipher the guard will be ineffective and the allocated buffer
containing the unwrapped key can be too small to fit the check-bytes
specified in the RFC and a buffer over-read can happen.
Applications calling CMS_decrypt() or CMS_decrypt_set1_password()
(equivalently openssl cms -decrypt -pwri_password ...) on untrusted CMS
data are vulnerable to this issue. No password knowledge is required: the
over-read happens during the unwrap attempt before any authentication
succeeds.
The over-read is limited to a few bytes and is not written to output, so
there is no information disclosure. Triggering a crash requires the
allocation to border unmapped memory, which is unlikely with the normal
allocator.
The FIPS modules are not affected by this issue.
A flaw was found in OpenSSL. When processing attacker-supplied Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) data using password-based decryption, an attacker can choose a stream-mode Key Encryption Key (KEK) cipher. This can trigger a heap out-of-bounds read, potentially causing an application crash and leading to a Denial of Service (DoS). This vulnerability does not require password knowledge and can be exploited before authentication.
Отчет
This is a Low impact denial of service due to a heap out-of-bounds read in kek_unwrap_key() when processing attacker-supplied CMS data with an attacker-chosen stream-mode KEK cipher. This flaw requires specific memory conditions (input buffer ending at a page boundary with an unmapped following page) to trigger a crash, which is uncommon in typical Red Hat environments. No information disclosure is possible, and FIPS modules are not affected.
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.
