The dtls1_reassemble_fragment function in d1_both.c in OpenSSL before 0.9.8za, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0m, and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1h does not properly validate fragment lengths in DTLS ClientHello messages, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (buffer overflow and application crash) via a long non-initial fragment. diff --git a/ssl/d1_both.c b/ssl/d1_both.c index 1bb2e4d..7de9ae4 100644 (file) --- a/ssl/d1_both.c +++ b/ssl/d1_both.c @@ -627,7 +627,16 @@ dtls1_reassemble_fragment(SSL *s, struct hm_header_st* msg_hdr, int *ok) frag->msg_header.frag_off = 0; } else + { frag = (hm_fragment*) item->data; + if (frag->msg_header.msg_len != msg_hdr->msg_len) + { + item = NULL; + frag = NULL; + goto err; + } + } + /* If message is already reassembled, this must be a * retransmit and can be dropped.
