CVE-2008-5077

TITLE

OpenSSL Vulnerabilities that bypass the validity of certificate chains

DESCRIPTION

OpenSSL 0.9.8i and earlier does not properly check the return value from the EVP_VerifyFinal function, which allows remote attackers to bypass validation of the certificate chain via a malformed SSL/TLS signature for DSA and ECDSA keys. F5's FirePass server is a powerful network device that can provide users with secure access to the company's network through any standard web browser. F5 FirePass products have unidentified security vulnerabilities, allowing malicious users to conduct fraud and forgery attacks. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ============================================================================= FreeBSD-SA-09:02.openssl Security Advisory The FreeBSD Project Topic: OpenSSL incorrectly checks for malformed signatures Category: contrib Module: openssl Announced: 2009-01-07 Credits: Google Security Team Affects: All FreeBSD releases Corrected: 2009-01-07 21:03:41 UTC (RELENG_7, 7.1-STABLE) 2009-01-07 20:17:55 UTC (RELENG_7_1, 7.1-RELEASE-p1) 2009-01-07 20:17:55 UTC (RELENG_7_0, 7.0-RELEASE-p8) 2009-01-07 20:17:55 UTC (RELENG_6, 6.4-STABLE) 2009-01-07 20:17:55 UTC (RELENG_6_4, 6.4-RELEASE-p2) 2009-01-07 20:17:55 UTC (RELENG_6_3, 6.3-RELEASE-p8) CVE Name: CVE-2008-5077 For general information regarding FreeBSD Security Advisories, including descriptions of the fields above, security branches, and the following sections, please visit <URL:http://security.FreeBSD.org/>. Background FreeBSD includes software from the OpenSSL Project. The OpenSSL Project is a collaborative effort to develop a robust, commercial-grade, full-featured Open Source toolkit implementing the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) protocols as well as a full-strength general purpose cryptography library. II. Problem Description The EVP_VerifyFinal() function from OpenSSL is used to determine if a digital signature is valid. This is only a problem for DSA and ECDSA keys. III. Impact For applications using OpenSSL for SSL connections, an invalid SSL certificate may be interpreted as valid. This could for example be used by an attacker to perform a man-in-the-middle attack. Other applications which use the OpenSSL EVP API may similarly be affected. IV. Workaround For a server an RSA signed certificate may be used instead of DSA or ECDSA based certificate. Note that Mozilla Firefox does not use OpenSSL and thus is not affected. Solution Perform one of the following: 1) Upgrade your vulnerable system to 6-STABLE, or 7-STABLE, or to the RELENG_7_1, RELENG_7_0, RELENG_6_4, or RELENG_6_3 security branch dated after the correction date. 2) To patch your present system: The following patches have been verified to apply to FreeBSD 6.3, 6.4, 7.0, and 7.1 systems. a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the detached PGP signature using your PGP utility. [FreeBSD 7.x] # fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-09:02/openssl.patch # fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-09:02/openssl.patch.asc [FreeBSD 6.x] # fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-09:02/openssl6.patch # fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-09:02/openssl6.patch.asc b) Execute the following commands as root: # cd /usr/src # patch < /path/to/patch # cd /usr/src/secure/lib/libssl # make obj && make depend && make && make install # cd /usr/src/secure/usr.bin/openssl # make obj && make depend && make && make install NOTE: On the amd64 platform, the above procedure will not update the lib32 (i386 compatibility) libraries. On amd64 systems where the i386 compatibility libraries are used, the operating system should instead be recompiled as described in <URL:http://www.FreeBSD.org/handbook/makeworld.html> VI.

A patch fixing the issue with proper return code checking and further important recommendations are described in the original OpenSSL Team advisory. At the request of the OpenSSL team, oCERT has aided in the remediation coordination for other projects with similar API misuse vulnerabilities. In addition to EVP_VerifyFinal, the return codes from DSA_verify and DSA_do_verify functions were being incorrectly validated, and packages doing so are affected in a similar fashion as OpenSSL.

Background ========== ntp contains the client and daemon implementations for the Network Time Protocol. Impact ====== A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to spoof arbitrary names to conduct Man-In-The-Middle attacks and intercept sensitive information. Workaround ========== There is no known workaround at this time. Resolution ========== All ntp users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-misc/ntp-4.2.4_p6" References ========== [ 1 ] CVE-2008-5077 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-5077 [ 2 ] CVE-2009-0021 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-0021 [ 3 ] GLSA 200902-02 http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200902-02.xml Availability ============ This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-200904-05.xml Concerns? ========= Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.
