Description
A flaw was found in OpenSSL. A remote attacker can exploit a stack buffer overflow vulnerability by supplying a crafted Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) message with an oversized Initialization Vector (IV) when parsing AuthEnvelopedData structures that use Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD) ciphers such as AES-GCM. This can lead to a crash, causing a Denial of Service (DoS), or potentially allow for remote code execution.
