F5 Networks BIG-IP : OpenSSL OCSP vulnerability (SOL14261)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 78145

Synopsis

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

Description

OpenSSL before 0.9.8y, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0k, and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1d do not properly perform signature verification for Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) responses, which allow remote attackers to cause a denial-of-service (DoS) (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) by way of an invalid key.

Solution

Upgrade to one of the non-vulnerable versions listed in the F5 Solution SOL14261.
