NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gnutls-utils package and not the gnutls-utils package as distributed by RHEL.

A flaw was found in libgnutls. A remote attacker, by sending an extremely short premaster secret during an RSA key exchange to a server using an RSA key backed by a PKCS#11 token, could trigger a short heap overread. This memory corruption vulnerability could lead to information disclosure.
