Abstract
Security vulnerabilities have been discovered in OpenSSL that were reported on June 5, 2014 by the OpenSSL Project
Content
Vulnerability Details:
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-0224
Description: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a
man-in-the-middle attack, caused by the use of weak keying material
in SSL/TLS clients and servers. A remote attacker could exploit
this vulnerability using a specially-crafted handshake to conduct
man-in-the-middle attacks to decrypt and modify traffic.
CVSS Base Score: 5.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/93586
for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:N)
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-0076
Description: OpenSSL could allow a local attacker
to obtain sensitive information, caused by an implementation error
in ECDSA (Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm). An attacker
could exploit this vulnerability using the FLUSH+RELOAD cache
side-channel attack to recover ECDSA nonces.
CVSS Base Score: 2.1
CVSS Temporal Score: See http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/91990
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N)
