Advisory Version: 1.2
References: CVE-2022-0778
Summary
OpenSSL versions 1.0.2 to 1.0.2zc, 1.1.1 to 1.1.1m, 3.0.0, and 3.0.1 contain a vulnerability that could allow a denial of service (DoS) attack. The vulnerability lies in a specific function used to parse certificates containing "elliptic curve" public keys in compressed form, or explicit elliptic curve parameters with a base point encoded in compressed form. Using malicious input, an attacker could cause the function to enter an infinite loop.
This vulnerability has since been fixed in the following versions of OpenSSL:
· OpenSSL 1.0.2zd and later
· OpenSSL 1.1.1n and later
· OpenSSL 3.0.2 and later
