CVE-2015-1788
Reviewed-by: Matt Caswell <m...@openssl.org>
(cherry picked from commit
The CHANGES file in 1.0.0s and 0.9.8zg states:
*) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
field.
This can be used to perform denial of service against any
system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
client authentication enabled.
This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
