NewStart CGSL MAIN 7.02 : openssl Vulnerability (NS-SA-2026-0038)
high Nessus Plugin ID 304051
Synopsis
The remote NewStart CGSL host is affected by a vulnerability.Description
The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 7.02, has openssl packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability:- Issue summary: An application trying to decrypt CMS messages encrypted using password based encryption can trigger an out-of-bounds read and write. Impact summary: This out-of-bounds read may trigger a crash which leads to Denial of Service for an application. The out-of-bounds write can cause a memory corruption which can have various consequences including a Denial of Service or Execution of attacker-supplied code.
Although the consequences of a successful exploit of this vulnerability could be severe, the probability that the attacker would be able to perform it is low. Besides, password based (PWRI) encryption support in CMS messages is very rarely used. For that reason the issue was assessed as Moderate severity according to our Security Policy. The FIPS modules in 3.5, 3.4, 3.3, 3.2, 3.1 and 3.0 are not affected by this issue, as the CMS implementation is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary. (CVE-2025-9230)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
Solution
Upgrade the vulnerable CGSL openssl packages. Note that updated packages may not be available yet. Please contact ZTE for more information.See Also
