Summary Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code (CVE-2024-4741) or cause a denial of service (CVE-2024-5535, CVE-2024-4603). OpenSSL is used by AIX as part of AIX's secure network communications. Vulnerability Details ** CVEID: CVE-2024-4741 DESCRIPTION: **OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a use-after-free flaw in the SSL_free_buffers API function . By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service condition. CVSS Base score: 8.1 CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/292512 for the current score. CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) ** CVEID: CVE-2024-5535 DESCRIPTION: **OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a buffer over-read flaw in the SSL_select_next_proto API function when calling with an empty supported client protocols buffer. By sending a specially crafted request, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a crash or memory contents to be sent to the peer. CVSS Base score: 3.7 CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/296011 for the current score.
