When the OpenSSL CMP client\nprocesses this response, the NULL dereference occurs, causing a crash of\nthe CMP client.\nApplications that process untrusted CMP/CRMF messages may be affected.\nThe FIPS modules in 4.0, 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, and 3.0 are not affected by this\nissue, as the affected code is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary.", "A flaw was found in OpenSSL. An attacker controlling a Certificate Management Protocol (CMP) server, or acting as a man-in-the-middle, could craft a malicious CMP response. This response, containing a Certificate Request Message Format (CRMF) CertRepMessage with a specific malformed EncryptedValue structure, would trigger a NULL pointer dereference in the OpenSSL CMP client. This vulnerability leads to a crash of the application, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS)." ],
