Descriptions
OpenSSL before 0.9.8j, when SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG is enabled, does not prevent modification of the ciphersuite in the session cache, which allows remote attackers to force the use of a disabled cipher via vectors involving sniffing network traffic to discover a session identifier, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-4180.
OpenSSL en versiones anteriores a la 0.9.8j, si SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG está activado, no previene la modificación de sus datos en la caché de sesión, lo que permite a atacantes remotos forzar el uso de protocolos de cifrado deshabilitados a través de vectores de ataque que involucran la captura del tráfico de red para descubrir un identificador de sesión. Es una vulnerabilidad distinta a la CVE-2010-4180.
It was discovered that an old bug workaround in the SSL/TLS server code allowed an attacker to modify the stored session cache ciphersuite. This could possibly allow an attacker to downgrade the ciphersuite to a weaker one on subsequent connections. It was discovered that an old bug workaround in the SSL/TLS server code allowed allowed an attacker to modify the stored session cache ciphersuite. An attacker could possibly take advantage of this to force the use of a disabled cipher. This vulnerability only affects the versions of OpenSSL in Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 9.10.
