NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream polarssl package and not the polarssl package as distributed by Ubuntu.

Buffer overflow in the ssl_read_record function in ssl_tls.c in PolarSSL before 1.1.8, when using TLS 1.1, might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long packet.
