CVE-2013-3707: Novell Open Enterprise Server

Medium severity, CVSS 4.3. EPSS: 1.6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The HTTPSTK service in the novell-nrm package before 2.0.2-297.305.302.3 in Novell Open Enterprise Server 2 (OES 2) Linux, and OES 11 Linux Gold and SP1, does not make the intended SSL_free and SSL_shutdown calls for the close of a TCP connection, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (service crash) by establishing many TCP connections to port 8009.
