Descriptions

Double free vulnerability in the ssl3_get_key_exchange function in the OpenSSL client (ssl/s3_clnt.c) in OpenSSL 1.0.0a, 0.9.8, 0.9.7, and possibly other versions, when using ECDH, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted private key with an invalid prime. NOTE: some sources refer to this as a use-after-free issue.

Vulnerabilidad de doble liberación en la función ssl3_get_key_exchange en el cliente OpenSSL (ssl/s3_clnt.c) de OpenSSL v1.0.0a, v0.9.8, v0.9.7, y posiblemente otras versiones, cuando usa ECDH, permite a atacantes depediendo del contexto provocar una denegación de servicio (caída) y posiblemente ejecutar código a su elección a través de claves privadas manipuladas con un número no válido. NOTA: algunas fuentes se refieren a esto como un problema de uso después de la liberación.
