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

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48210

TLS / SSL Man-In-The-Middle Renegotiation Vulnerability

CVE #:
CVE-2009-3555
Release Date:
November 4, 2009
Vulnerable OS:
Any
Vulnerable Application:
N/A
Risk Type:
Unauthorized Access
Summary:
TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0 contain a man-in-the-middle renegotiation vulnerability.
Info:
TLS 1.0 (and higher) and SSL 3.0 (and higher) are vulnerable to
man-in-the-middle style attacks.

The flaw is specific to the renegotiation phase within the protocol. An
attacker can potentially inject arbitrary plaintext into an application's
protocol stream. This action can lead to numerous results, including attacks
on Certificate Authentication mechanisms. This issue affects multiple
platforms/vendors/applications which use the affected protocols.
General Fix:
Apply the appropriate patch from your vendor. Several vendors have released
httpd update packages.

The OpenSSL Repository also contains an update for OpenSSL.

It should be noted that initial patches simply mitigate the problem by
disabling renegotiation rather than solving the problem completely.
