nessus-core: signature verification flaw
| Package(s): | nessus-core |
CVE #(s): | CVE-2009-0125
|
| Created: | January 26, 2009 |
Updated: | October 13, 2009 |
| Description: |
From the CVE entry:
** DISPUTED ** NOTE: this issue has been disputed by the upstream vendor. nasl/nasl_crypto2.c in the Nessus Attack Scripting Language library (aka libnasl) 2.2.11 does not properly check the return value from the OpenSSL DSA_do_verify function, which allows remote attackers to bypass validation of the certificate chain via a malformed SSL/TLS signature, a similar vulnerability to CVE-2008-5077. NOTE: the upstream vendor has disputed this issue, stating "while we do misuse this function (this is a bug), it has absolutely no security ramification." |
