The remote Oracle Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2016-3558 advisory.

  - The fmtstr function in crypto/bio/b_print.c in OpenSSL 1.0.1 before 1.0.1s and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2g     improperly calculates string lengths, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (overflow     and out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long string, as demonstrated by a     large amount of ASN.1 data, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-2842. (CVE-2016-0799)

  - Integer overflow in the EVP_EncodeUpdate function in crypto/evp/encode.c in OpenSSL before 1.0.1t and     1.0.2 before 1.0.2h allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption) via a     large amount of binary data. (CVE-2016-2105)

  - The AES-NI implementation in OpenSSL before 1.0.1t and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2h does not consider memory     allocation during a certain padding check, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive cleartext     information via a padding-oracle attack against an AES CBC session. NOTE: this vulnerability exists     because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2013-0169. (CVE-2016-2107)

  - The doapr_outch function in crypto/bio/b_print.c in OpenSSL 1.0.1 before 1.0.1s and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2g     does not verify that a certain memory allocation succeeds, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial     of service (out-of-bounds write or memory consumption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a     long string, as demonstrated by a large amount of ASN.1 data, a different vulnerability than     CVE-2016-0799. (CVE-2016-2842)

  - Integer overflow in the EVP_EncryptUpdate function in crypto/evp/evp_enc.c in OpenSSL before 1.0.1t and     1.0.2 before 1.0.2h allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption) via a     large amount of data. (CVE-2016-2106)

  - The ASN.1 implementation in OpenSSL before 1.0.1o and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2c allows remote attackers to     execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (buffer underflow and memory corruption) via an ANY     field in crafted serialized data, aka the negative zero issue. (CVE-2016-2108)

  - The asn1_d2i_read_bio function in crypto/asn1/a_d2i_fp.c in the ASN.1 BIO implementation in OpenSSL before     1.0.1t and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2h allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption)     via a short invalid encoding. (CVE-2016-2109)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of OpenSSL installed on the remote AIX host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A heap buffer overflow condition exists in the     EVP_EncodeUpdate() function within file     crypto/evp/encode.c that is triggered when handling     a large amount of input data. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service     condition. (CVE-2016-2105)

  - A heap buffer overflow condition exists in the     EVP_EncryptUpdate() function within file     crypto/evp/evp_enc.c that is triggered when handling a     large amount of input data after a previous call occurs     to the same function with a partial block. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2016-2106)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the     ASN.1 encoder due to an underflow condition that occurs     when attempting to encode the value zero represented as     a negative integer. An unauthenticated, remote attacker     can exploit this to corrupt memory, resulting in the     execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2108)

  - Multiple unspecified flaws exist in the d2i BIO     functions when reading ASN.1 data from a BIO due to     invalid encoding causing a large allocation of memory.
    An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these to     cause a denial of service condition through resource     exhaustion. (CVE-2016-2109)

  - An out-of-bounds read error exists in the     X509_NAME_oneline() function within file     crypto/x509/x509_obj.c when handling very long ASN1     strings. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this to disclose the contents of stack memory.
    (CVE-2016-2176)

According to the versions of the openssl098e package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - An integer overflow flaw, leading to a buffer overflow,     was found in the way the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function     of OpenSSL parsed very large amounts of input data. A     remote attacker could use this flaw to crash an     application using OpenSSL or, possibly, execute     arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running     that application.(CVE-2016-2106)

  - A denial of service flaw was found in the way OpenSSL     parsed certain ASN.1-encoded data from BIO (OpenSSL's     I/O abstraction) inputs. An application using OpenSSL     that accepts untrusted ASN.1 BIO input could be forced     to allocate an excessive amount of data.(CVE-2016-2109)

  - The X509_cmp_time function in crypto/x509/x509_vfy.c in     OpenSSL before 0.9.8zg, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0s, 1.0.1     before 1.0.1n, and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2b allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds     read and application crash) via a crafted length field     in ASN1_TIME data, as demonstrated by an attack against     a server that supports client authentication with a     custom verification callback.(CVE-2015-1789)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

According to its banner, the version of OpenSSL on the remote host is 1.0.1 prior to 1.0.1t, or 1.0.2 prior to 1.0.2h. It is therefore affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - A flaw exists in 'crypto/asn1/a_d2i_fp.c', which is triggered during the handling of large length fields in ASN.1 BIO. This may allow a remote attacker to exhaust memory resources, potentially crashing a process linked against the library.
 - A flaw exists in the 'aesni_cbc_hmac_sha1_cipher()' function in 'crypto/evp/e_aes_cbc_hmac_sha1.c' and 'aesni_cbc_hmac_sha256_cipher()' function in 'crypto/evp/e_aes_cbc_hmac_sha256.c'. The issue is triggered when a connection uses an AES CBC cipher and AES-NI is supported by the server. This may allow a MitM (Man-in-the-Middle) attacker to conduct a padding oracle attack to potentially decrypt traffic.
 - A flaw in the 'X509_NAME_oneline()' function in 'crypto/x509/x509_obj.c' that is triggered when handling overly long ASN1 strings. This may allow a remote attacker to potentially disclose arbitrary stack memory contents.
 - An overflow condition in the 'EVP_EncryptUpdate()' function in 'crypto/evp/evp_enc.c' is triggered when handling a large amount of input data after a previous call to the same function with a partial block. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to cause a heap-based buffer overflow, crashing a process linked against the library or potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.
 - An overflow condition in the 'EVP_EncodeUpdate()' function in 'crypto/evp/encode.c' is triggered when handling a large amount of input data. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to cause a heap-based buffer overflow, crashing a process linked against the library or potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.
