EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
CVE: CVE-2016-2105
Component: openssl
CWE: CWE-122
Severity: Moderate
CVSS v3: 5.6/CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L
Release date: 2016-05-03T00:00:00+00:00

An integer overflow flaw, leading to a buffer overflow, was found in the way the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function of OpenSSL parsed very large amounts of input data. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash an application using OpenSSL or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running that application.
