medium Nessus Plugin ID 76579

Language:

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities related to the included OpenSSL library.

Description

The remote host is running a version of McAfee Email Gateway (MEG) that is affected by the multiple vulnerabilities related to the included OpenSSL library :

- An error exists in the function 'ssl3_read_bytes' that can allow data to be injected into other sessions or allow denial of service attacks. Note that this issue is exploitable only if 'SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS' is enabled. (CVE-2010-5298)

- An error exists related to the implementation of the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) that can allow nonce disclosure via the 'FLUSH+RELOAD' cache side-channel attack. (CVE-2014-0076)

- A buffer overflow error exists related to invalid DTLS fragment handling that can lead to execution of arbitrary code. Note that this issue only affects OpenSSL when used as a DTLS client or server.
(CVE-2014-0195)

- An error exists in the function 'do_ssl3_write' that can allow a NULL pointer to be dereferenced leading to denial of service attacks. Note that this issue is exploitable only if 'SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS' is enabled. (CVE-2014-0198)

- An error exists related to DTLS handshake handling that can lead to denial of service attacks. Note that this issue only affects OpenSSL when used as a DTLS client.
(CVE-2014-0221)

- An unspecified error exists that can allow an attacker to cause usage of weak keying material leading to simplified man-in-the-middle attacks. (CVE-2014-0224)

- An unspecified error exists related to anonymous ECDH cipher suites that can allow denial of service attacks.
Note that this issue only affects OpenSSL TLS clients.
(CVE-2014-3470)
