Description Andrej Nemec 2017-08-29 03:31:08 EDT
If an X.509 certificate has a malformed IPAddressFamily extension,
OpenSSL could do a one-byte buffer overread. The most likely result
would be an erroneous display of the certificate in text format.

CVSS3 Base Score is 5.3 (https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2017-3735), which means RedHat is failed on PCI compliance (pg. 31 in https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/documents/ASV_Program_Guide_v3.0.pdf

I believe RedHat don't want to leave the customers failed on PCI compliance.  I'm using the Amazon Linux AMI so it's following RHEL/EPEL 6.  Please address this ASAP.
Comment 5 Huzaifa S. Sidhpurwala 2018-01-17 01:36:47 EST
Statement:

This flaw only exhibits itself when:
1. OpenSSL is used to display details of a local or a remote certificate.
2. The certificate contains the uncommon RFC 3779 IPAddressFamily extension.

The maximum impact of this flaw is garbled information being displayed, there is no impact on the availability of service using such a certificate. Also this flaw can NOT be used to create specially-crafted certificates. Red Hat Product Security has rated this issue as having Low security impact. This issue is not currently planned to be addressed in future updates. For additional information, refer to the Issue Severity Classification: https://access.redhat.com/security/updates/classification/.
