CVE-2016-0799 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
Upgrade RHEL:7 openssl to version 1:1.0.1e-51.el7_2.5 or higher.
This issue was patched in RHSA-2016:0722.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openssl package and not the openssl package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.
The fmtstr function in crypto/bio/b_print.c in OpenSSL 1.0.1 before 1.0.1s and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2g improperly calculates string lengths, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (overflow and out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long string, as demonstrated by a large amount of ASN.1 data, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-2842.
