Description
A flaw was found in OpenSSL. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to trigger a Denial of Service (DoS) by providing a specially crafted, malformed PKCS#12 file to an application that processes it. The flaw occurs due to a NULL pointer dereference in the PKCS12_item_decrypt_d2i_ex() function when handling the malformed file, leading to an application crash.
