CVE-2018-0739 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade Amazon-Linux:2 openssl-libs to version 1:1.0.2k-16.amzn2.0.1 or higher.
This issue was patched in ALAS2-2018-1102.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openssl-libs package and not the openssl-libs package as distributed by Amazon-Linux.
See How to fix? for Amazon-Linux:2 relevant fixed versions and status.
Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources so this is considered safe. Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.0h (Affected 1.1.0-1.1.0g). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2o (Affected 1.0.2b-1.0.2n).
