Vulnerability Details
CVE-ID: CVE-2018-0734
Description: OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a timing side channel attack in the DSA signature algorithm. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability using variations in the signing algorithm to recover the private key.
CVSS Base Score: 3.7
CVSS Temporal Score: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/152085 for more information
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N)
Description: OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by the failure to immediately close the TCP connection after the hosts encounter a zero-length record with valid padding. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability using a 0-byte record padding-oracle attack to decrypt traffic.
