Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Information disclosure
EUVDB-ID: #VU5214
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 8.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:A/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3566
CWE-ID:
CWE-327 - Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.
The vulnerability exists due to usage of insecure SSLv3 protocol in OpenSSL. A remote attacker can force the current connection between user and server to be downgraded to SSLv3 protocol and then use padding-oracle attack on Cypher-block chaining (CBC) mode to decrypt encrypted communication.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to read encrypted communications in clear text.
Note: The vulnerability is known as POODLE.
Install update from vendor's website.

2) Session Ticket Memory Leak
EUVDB-ID: #VU5213
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 6.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3567
CWE-ID:
CWE-401 - Missing release of memory after effective lifetime
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to an error when handling integrity of session tickets in OpenSSL. A remote attacker can send a large number of invalid session tickets and cause denial of service conditions.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
