F5 Networks BIG-IP : GnuTLS vulnerability (K54022413)

high Nessus Plugin ID 123838

Synopsis

The remote device is missing a vendor-supplied security patch.

Description

GnuTLS before 3.3.13 does not validate that the signature algorithms match when importing a certificate. (CVE-2015-0294)

Impact

GnuTLS does not check if all sections of X.509 certificates indicate the same signature algorithm. This flaw, in combination with a different flaw, can lead to a bypass of the certificate signature check.

Solution

Upgrade to one of the non-vulnerable versions listed in the F5 Solution K54022413.
