Title

Heap Buffer Overflow in CMS Key Unwrapping

Summary

Issue summary: OpenSSL CMS decryption sizes the key-unwrap output buffer based on querying the unwrapped key size, but the AES-WRAP-PAD unwrap primitive can write and cleanse more bytes than that query reports, causing an 8-byte out-of-bounds heap write. Impact summary: An attacker who supplies a crafted CMS message can trigger a deterministic 8-byte out-of-bounds heap write when the victim decrypts it with CMS_decrypt(), corrupting the heap and typically resulting in a Denial of Service. CWE: CWE-787: Out-of-bounds Write Description: The key-wrap OID is potentially attacker-controlled on the wire. CMS unwrapping allows both id-aesNNN-wrap-pad and id-aesNNN-wrap ciphers. An attacker can take a legitimate message and change a single OID byte to select the padded variant while leaving the message otherwise valid. Since the unwrap key is derived from the recipient's private operation (ECDH key agreement or ML-KEM decapsulation), the RFC 5649 integrity check cannot pass, and the decryption fails with integrity failure. The write is a fixed-size (8-byte), fixed-value (zero) heap overflow immediately past the allocation, requires no special configuration, and is reachable from the public CMS_decrypt() function. The consequence is a heap corruption leading to a Denial of Service. The fix in the CMS code sizes the unwrap output buffer for the worst case so a failed unwrap cannot write past the allocation. FIPS impact: no As the CMS code lives outside the FIPS module boundary, no FIPS modules are affected by this CVE.

Since\nthe unwrap key is derived from the recipient\u0027s private operation (ECDH key\nagreement or ML-KEM decapsulation), the RFC 5649 integrity check cannot\npass, and the decryption fails with integrity failure.\n\nThe write is a fixed-size (8-byte), fixed-value (zero) heap overflow\nimmediately past the allocation, requires no special configuration, and is\nreachable from the public CMS_decrypt() function. The consequence is\na heap corruption leading to a Denial of Service. The fix in the CMS code\nsizes the unwrap output buffer for the worst case so a failed unwrap cannot\nwrite past the allocation.\n\nFIPS impact: no\n\nAs the CMS code lives outside the FIPS module boundary, no FIPS\nmodules are affected by this CVE."

Vulnerability from csaf_redhat - Published: 2026-08-25 21:57 - Updated: 2026-09-14 07:59

Summary

Red Hat Security Advisory: Red Hat Hardened Images RPMs bug fix and enhancement update

Severity

Moderate

Scope

8 vulnerabilities in this advisory, including CVE-2026-63072.

CVE-2026-63072

A flaw was found in OpenSSL. A crafted CMS (Cryptographic Message Syntax) message can cause an 8-byte out-of-bounds heap write when it is decrypted with CMS_decrypt(). This issue occurs because the CMS decryption process incorrectly sizes the key-unwrap output buffer when using the AES-WRAP-PAD unwrap primitive. This can lead to memory corruption, resulting in a denial of service.

7.5 (High)

Summary

Important: openssl security, bug fix, and enhancement update

Details

OpenSSL is a toolkit that implements the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols, as well as a full-strength general-purpose cryptography library.

Security Fix(es):

openssl: OpenSSL: Denial of Service via unbounded memory growth in QUIC server (CVE-2026-14456)
openssl: QUIC server may trigger double free when processing INITIAL packet (CVE-2026-18798)
openssl: heap buffer overflow in CMS key unwrapping (CVE-2026-63072)
openssl: invalid pointer dereference in CMP server via crafted protectionAlg (CVE-2026-63076)
openssl: RPK server signature algorithm selection can dereference a missing certificate (CVE-2026-14457)
openssl: excessive memory use buffering DTLS records for a future epoch (CVE-2026-54874)
openssl: untrusted sender DN used as format string in CMP response validation (CVE-2026-63073)
openssl: CMP indefinite cache growth of ExtraCerts (CVE-2026-63074)
openssl: QUIC ACK-only packet retention can cause memory exhaustion (CVE-2026-63075)

Bug Fix(es) and Enhancement(s):

openssl: HollowByte remote memory-exhaustion DoS fix may be missing [Rocky Linux 10.2.z] (JIRA:Rocky Linux-212362)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
