CVE-2014-3572  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-310  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Centos:7 openssl-devel to version 1:1.0.1e-34.el7_0.7 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openssl-devel package and not the openssl-devel package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

The ssl3_get_key_exchange function in s3_clnt.c in OpenSSL before 0.9.8zd, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0p, and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1k allows remote SSL servers to conduct ECDHE-to-ECDH downgrade attacks and trigger a loss of forward secrecy by omitting the ServerKeyExchange message.
