Descriptions
The ASN.1 implementation in OpenSSL before 1.0.1o and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2c allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (buffer underflow and memory corruption) via an ANY field in crafted serialized data, aka the "negative zero" issue.
La implementación ASN.1 en OpenSSL en versiones anteriores a 1.0.1o y 1.0.2 en versiones anteriores a 1.0.2c permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o provocar una denegación de servicio (desbordamiento inferior de buffer y corrupción de memoria) a través de un campo ANY en datos serializados manipulados, también conocido como el problema "cero negativo".
A flaw was found in the way OpenSSL encoded certain ASN.1 data structures. An attacker could use this flaw to create a specially crafted certificate which, when verified or re-encoded by OpenSSL, could cause it to crash, or execute arbitrary code using the permissions of the user running an application compiled against the OpenSSL library.
Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6 is a platform for Java applications based on JBoss Application Server 7. This release includes bug fixes and enhancements, as well as a new release of OpenSSL that addresses a number of outstanding security flaws. For further information, see the knowledge base article linked to in the References section. All users of Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.4 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 are advised to upgrade to these updated packages. The JBoss server process must be restarted for the update to take effect.
