Description

A flaw was found in openssl. Applications that use RSASVE key encapsulation, a method for securely exchanging encryption keys, may inadvertently expose sensitive data. This vulnerability arises when an application processes a malicious, invalid RSA public key provided by an attacker without proper validation. Consequently, the application might send the contents of an uninitialized memory buffer, which could contain confidential information, to the attacker.
