Summary
mbedtls vulnerabilities
Details
It was discovered that Mbed TLS incorrectly handled memory allocation failures. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to crash the program. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. (CVE-2021-44732)
Jonathan Winzig discovered that Mbed TLS incorrectly handled crafted inputs. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to crash the program, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-23775)
It was discovered that Mbed TLS incorrectly handled the TLS handshake. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to break the security guarantees of the TLS handshake. (CVE-2025-27810)
Linh Le and Ngan Nguyen discovered that Mbed TLS incorrectly documented the behavior of a function. Application code relying on the documented behavior might be affected. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2025-47917)
Linh Le and Ngan Nguyen discovered that Mbed TLS incorrectly handled crafted input. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to crash the program, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2025-48965)
It was discovered that Mbed TLS incorrectly handled a race condition. An attacker could possibly use this issue to extract AES keys. (CVE-2025-52496)
Linh Le and Ngan Nguyen discovered that Mbed TLS incorrectly handled certain invalid input. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to crash the program, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2025-52497)

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.
