Summary
openssl vulnerabilities
Details

It was discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled malformed EC private key files. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-0209)

Stephen Henson discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled comparing ASN.1 boolean types. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2015-0286)

Emilia Käsper discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled ASN.1 structure reuse. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-0287)

Brian Carpenter discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled invalid certificate keys. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2015-0288)

Michal Zalewski discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled missing outer ContentInfo when parsing PKCS#7 structures. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-0289)

Robert Dugal and David Ramos discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled decoding Base64 encoded data. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-0292)

Sean Burford and Emilia Käsper discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY messages. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2015-0293)
