Descriptions

EMC RSA BSAFE Crypto-J versions prior to 6.2.2 has a PKCS#12 Timing Attack Vulnerability. A possible timing attack could be carried out by modifying a PKCS#12 file that has an integrity MAC for which the password is not known. An attacker could then feed the modified PKCS#12 file to the toolkit and guess the current MAC one byte at a time. This is possible because Crypto-J uses a non-constant-time method to compare the stored MAC with the calculated MAC. This vulnerability is similar to the issue described in CVE-2015-2601.

EMC RSA BSAFE Crypto-J en versiones anteriores a 6.2.2 tiene una vulnerabilidad de ataque de sincronización PKCS#12. Un posible ataque de sincronización podría llevarse a cabo modificando un archivo PKCS#12 que tiene un MAC de integridad para el que no se conoce la contraseña. Un atacante podría entonces alimentar el archivo PKCS#12 modificado al toolkit y adivinar el MAC actual de un byte a la vez. Esto es posible porque Crypto-J utiliza un método de tiempo no constante para comparar el MAC almacenado con el MAC calculado. Esta vulnerabilidad es similar al problema descrito en CVE-2015-2601.
