Stephen Henson, of the OpenSSL core team, has analysed the results and produced a patch to address the problems found. NISCC's description of the problem: "An unusual ASN.1 tag value can cause an out of bounds read under certain circumstances resulting in a Denial of Service condition. [...] For example, if one of the parties involved in a TLS/SSL connection sends an ASN.1 element that cannot be handled properly, the behaviour of the receiving application may be unpredictable. It has been found that a vulnerability can arise where one of the parties generates an exceptional ASN.1 element as part of a client certificate. A Denial of Service may arise in the receiving application, or there may be an opportunity for further exploitation." Immunix, Inc., would like to thank Stephen Henson for the patches and NISCC for preparing the SSL test suite.
