Summary
OpenSSL is prone to a denial of service (DoS) vulnerability.
Insight
Insight
Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources so this is considered safe. Reported by OSS-fuzz.
Affected Software
Affected Software
OpenSSL version 1.0.2b through 1.0.2n and 1.1.0 through 1.1.0g.
