[Bug 48210] New: TLS / SSL Man-In-The-Middle Renegotiation Vulnerability
|

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48210 Summary: TLS / SSL Man-In-The-Middle Renegotiation Vulnerability Product: Apache httpd-2 Version: 2.2.14 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: blocker Priority: P2 Component: mod_ssl AssignedTo: bugs [at] httpd ReportedBy: alcol [at] hotmail TLS / SSL Man-In-The-Middle Renegotiation Vulnerability TLS and its predecessor, SSL, are cryptographic protocols that provide security for communications over IP data networks such as the Internet. An industry-wide vulnerability exists in the TLS protocol that could impact many products that uses any version of TLS and SSL. The vulnerability exists in how the protocol handles session renegotiation and exposes users to a potential man-in-the-middle attack. TLS 1.0 (and higher) and SSL 3.0 (and higher), does not properly associate renegotiation handshakes with an existing connection, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to insert data into HTTPS sessions, and possibly other types of sessions protected by TLS or SSL, by sending an unauthenticated request that is processed retroactively by a server in a post-renegotiation context, related to a "plaintext injection" attack, aka the "Project Mogul" issue. Affected Version and Products include, the TLS protocol 1.0, and the SSL protocol 3.0 and possibly earlier, as used in Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 7.0, mod_ssl in the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.14 and earlier, OpenSSL before 0.9.8l, GnuTLS 2.8.5 and earlier, Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) 3.12.4 and earlier, multiple Cisco products, and other products. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: bugs-unsubscribe [at] httpd For additional commands, e-mail: bugs-help [at] httpd
