EPSS 46.12%
Description
d1_both.c in the DTLS implementation in OpenSSL 0.9.8 before 0.9.8zb, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0n, and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1i allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via crafted DTLS handshake messages that trigger memory allocations corresponding to large length values.
