OpenSSL Anonymous ECDH Denial Of Service Vulnerability
Publish date: July 21, 2015
Severity: MEDIUM
CVE Identifier: CVE-2014-3470
Advisory Date: JUL 21, 2015
DESCRIPTION
The ssl3_send_client_key_exchange function in s3_clnt.c in OpenSSL before 0.9.8za, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0m, and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1h, when an anonymous ECDH cipher suite is used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and client crash) by triggering a NULL certificate value.
nvd: Per: http://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/476.html
"CWE-476: NULL Pointer Dereference"
