Descriptions

The token processing system (pki-tps) in Red Hat Certificate System (RHCS) before 8.1.3 does not properly handle interruptions of token format operations, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and Apache httpd web server child process crash) via unspecified vectors.

El sistema de proceso de tokens (pki-tps) en Red Hat Certificate System (RHCS) anteriores a v8.1.3 no manejan de forma adecuada las interrupciones de las operaciones de formateo, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio(desreferencia a puntero NULL y caída de proceso hijo del servidor web Apache) a través de vectores no especificados.
