CVE-2010-5298

Condición de carrera en la función ssl3_read_bytes en s3_pkt.c en OpenSSL hasta 1.0.1g, cuando SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS está habilitado, permite a atacantes remotos inyectar datos a través de sesiones o causar una denegación de servicio (error de uso después de liberación y análisis sintáctico) a través de una conexión SSL en un entorno con múltiples hilos.

OpenSSL is a toolkit that implements the Secure Sockets Layer and Transport Layer Security protocols, as well as a full-strength, general purpose cryptography library. It was found that OpenSSL clients and servers could be forced, via a specially crafted handshake packet, to use weak keying material for communication. A man-in-the-middle attacker could use this flaw to decrypt and modify traffic between a client and a server. Note: In order to exploit this flaw, both the server and the client must be using a vulnerable version of OpenSSL; the server must be using OpenSSL version 1.0.1 and above, and the client must be using any version of OpenSSL.
