Vulnerability Information


Severity: Medium
Vulnerability Published: N/A
Patch Published: 2010-05-31
CVE [?]: CVE-2010-0740
CPE [?]: cpe:/a:f5:big-ip_access_policy_manager, cpe:/a:f5:big-ip_application_security_manager, cpe:/a:f5:big-ip_global_traffic_manager, cpe:/a:f5:big-ip_link_controller, cpe:/a:f5:big-ip_local_traffic_manager, cpe:/a:f5:big-ip_wan_optimization_manager, cpe:/a:f5:big-ip_webaccelerator, cpe:/h:f5:big-ip, cpe:/h:f5:big-ip_protocol_security_manager

Synopsis

The remote device is missing a vendor-supplied security patch.

Description

The ssl3_get_record function in ssl/s3_pkt.c in OpenSSL 0.9.8f through 0.9.8m allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a malformed record in a TLS connection that triggers a NULL pointer de-reference, related to the minor version number.

Solution

Upgrade to one of the non-vulnerable versions listed in the F5 Solution SOL11533.

How to Run


Here is how to run the F5 Networks BIG-IP : OpenSSL vulnerability (SOL11533) as a standalone plugin via the Nessus web user interface (https://localhost:8834/):

  1. Click to start a New Scan.
  2. Select Advanced Scan.
  3. Navigate to the Plugins tab.
  4. On the top right corner click to Disable All plugins.
  5. On the left side table select F5 Networks Local Security Checks plugin family.
  6. On the right side table select F5 Networks BIG-IP : OpenSSL vulnerability (SOL11533) plugin ID 78126.
  7. Specify the target on the Settings tab and click to Save the scan.
  8. Run the scan.

Here are a few examples of how to run the plugin in the command line. Note that the examples below demonstrate the usage on the Linux / Unix platform.

Basic usage:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl f5_bigip_SOL11533.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with audit trail message on the console:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -a f5_bigip_SOL11533.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with trace script execution written to the console (useful for debugging):

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -T - f5_bigip_SOL11533.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with using a state file for the target and updating it (useful for running multiple plugins on the target):

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -K /tmp/state f5_bigip_SOL11533.nasl -t <IP/HOST>
