Descriptions

In wolfSSL through 4.1.0, there is a missing sanity check of memory accesses in parsing ASN.1 certificate data while handshaking. Specifically, there is a one-byte heap-based buffer over-read in CheckCertSignature_ex in wolfcrypt/src/asn.c.

En wolfSSL versiones hasta 4.1.0, se presenta una falta de comprobación de saneamiento de los accesos a la memoria en el análisis de los datos del certificado ASN.1 durante el protocolo de negociación (handshaking). Específicamente, se presenta una lectura excesiva de búfer en la región heap de la memoria de un byte en la función CheckCertSignature_ex en el archivo wolfcrypt/src/asn.c.
