Descriptions

OpenSSL 0.9.7 before 0.9.7l and 0.9.8 before 0.9.8d allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and memory consumption) via malformed ASN.1 structures that trigger an improperly handled error condition.

OpenSSL 0.9.7 en versiones anteriores a 0.9.7l y 0.9.8 en versiones anteriores a 0.9.8d permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (bucle infinito y consumo de memoria) a través de estructuras ASN.1 mal formadas que desencadenan una condición de error manejada incorrectamente.
