Descriptions

The ssl3_get_key_exchange function in s3_clnt.c in OpenSSL before 0.9.8zd, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0p, and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1k allows remote SSL servers to conduct ECDHE-to-ECDH downgrade attacks and trigger a loss of forward secrecy by omitting the ServerKeyExchange message.

La función ssl3_get_key_exchange function en s3_clnt.c en OpenSSL en versiones anteriores a 0.9.8zd, 1.0.0 en versiones anteriores a 1.0.0p y 1.0.1 en versiones anteriores a 1.0.1k permite a servidores SSL remotos llevar a cabo ataques de desactualización ECDHE-to-ECDH y desencadenar una pérdida de confidencialidad directa omitiendo los mensajes ServerKeyExchange.

It was discovered that OpenSSL would perform an ECDH key exchange with a non-ephemeral key even when the ephemeral ECDH cipher suite was selected. A malicious server could make a TLS/SSL client using OpenSSL use a weaker key exchange method than the one requested by the user.
