OpenSSL SSL_get_shared_ciphers Function Buffer Overflow
Publish date: July 21, 2015
Severity: CRITICAL
CVE Identifier: CVE-2006-3738
Advisory Date: JUL 21, 2015
DESCRIPTION
Buffer overflow in the SSL_get_shared_ciphers function in OpenSSL has unspecified impact and remote attack vectors involving a long list of ciphers.
Note: The detection logic for a DPI rule is same for both vulnerabilities CVE-2006-3738 & CVE-2007-5135 due to same vulnerable condition. Hence you may see over recommendation of this vulnerability when there is no patch detected for vulnerability CVE-2007-5135.
TREND MICRO PROTECTION INFORMATION
Failed exploit attempts may crash applications, denying service to legitimate users.
