HP Version Control Agent (VCA) < 7.3.3 Multiple SSL Vulnerabilities

high Nessus Plugin ID 77151

Synopsis

The remote host contains software that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities related to SSL.

Description

The RPM installation of HP Version Control Agent (VCA) on the remote Linux host is a version prior to 7.3.3. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities in the bundled version of SSL :

- An error exists in the 'ssl3_read_bytes' function that permits data to be injected into other sessions or allows denial of service attacks. Note that this issue is exploitable only if SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS is enabled. (CVE-2010-5298)

- A flaw in the ECDS Algorithm implementation can be triggered using a FLUSH+RELOAD cache side-channel attack which may allow a malicious process to recover ECDSA nonces. (CVE-2014-0076)

- A buffer overflow error exists related to invalid DTLS fragment handling that permits the execution of arbitrary code or allows denial of service attacks.
Note that this issue only affects OpenSSL when used as a DTLS client or server. (CVE-2014-0195)

- An error exists in the 'do_ssl3_write' function that permits a NULL pointer to be dereferenced, which could allow denial of service attacks. Note that this issue is exploitable only if SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS is enabled. (CVE-2014-0198)

- An error exists related to DTLS handshake handling that could allow denial of service attacks. Note that this issue only affects OpenSSL when used as a DTLS client.
(CVE-2014-0221)

- An error exists in the processing of ChangeCipherSpec messages that allows the usage of weak keying material.
This permits simplified man-in-the-middle attacks to be done. (CVE-2014-0224)

- An error exists in the 'dtls1_get_message_fragment' function related to anonymous ECDH cipher suites. This could allow denial of service attacks. Note that this issue only affects OpenSSL TLS clients. (CVE-2014-3470)

Solution

Upgrade to VCA 7.3.3 or later.
