Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains one low risk vulnerability.
1) Buffer Over-read
EUVDB-ID: #VU642
Risk: Low
CVSSv4.0: 2.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]
CVE-ID: CVE-2016-2176
CWE-ID:
CWE-126 - Buffer over-read
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote to cause buffer over-read on the target system.
The weakness exists due to overread in applications using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. The vulnerability leads to arbitrary stack data return to the buffer.
Successful exploitation of the weakness results in buffer over-read on the vulnerable system.
