File openssl-CVE-2021-23841.patch of Package openssl1
From 122a19ab48091c657f7cb1fb3af9fc07bd557bbf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matt Caswell <matt@openssl.org> Date: Wed, 10 Feb 2021 16:10:36 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Fix Null pointer deref in X509_issuer_and_serial_hash() The OpenSSL public API function X509_issuer_and_serial_hash() attempts to create a unique hash value based on the issuer and serial number data contained within an X509 certificate. However it fails to correctly handle any errors that may occur while parsing the issuer field (which might occur if the issuer field is maliciously constructed). This may subsequently result in a NULL pointer deref and a crash leading to a potential denial of service attack. The function X509_issuer_and_serial_hash() is never directly called by OpenSSL itself so applications are only vulnerable if they use this function directly and they use it on certificates that may have been obtained from untrusted sources.
