Medium severity, CVSS 5.0. EPSS: 13.7% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

OpenSSL 0.9.8s and 1.0.0f does not properly support DTLS applications, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via unspecified vectors related to an out-of-bounds read. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2011-4108.

Affected products

• OpenSSL OpenSSL: version 0.9.8s only; version 1.0.0f only
