Severity: CRITICAL
DESCRIPTION
A denial-of-service vulnerability exists in libtasn1, a component of GnuTLS. The vulnerability is due to a flaw in parsing ASN.1 data that causes libtasn1 to enter an infinite loop when processing a specially crafted DER-encoded input. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability in GnuTLS by sending a crafted ASN.1 certificate to a target application. Successful exploitation may result in a denial-of-service condition.
