Descriptions

A specially crafted x509 certificate can cause a single out of bounds byte overwrite in wolfSSL through 3.10.2 resulting in potential certificate validation vulnerabilities, denial of service and possible remote code execution. In order to trigger this vulnerability, the attacker needs to supply a malicious x509 certificate to either a server or a client application using this library.

Un certificado x509 especialmente diseñado puede causar una sobreescritura de bytes fuera de los límites única en wolfSSL hasta la versión 3.10.2, resultando en vulnerabilidades potenciales de comprobación de certificados, denegación de servicio y posible ejecución de código remota. Para desencadenar esta vulnerabilidad, el atacante necesita proporcionar un certificado x509 malicioso a un servidor o una aplicación cliente usando esta biblioteca.
