Description: 

OpenSSL released a security advisory on 8. January 2015 describing 8 vulnerabilities fixed in the newest release (i.a. 1.0.1k).

No OpenSSL update is required. The vulnerabilities are not relevant for Airlock WAF.

Details:

  • CVE-2014-3571, CVE-2015-0206: Affects DTLS protocol which is not used by Airlock WAF.
  • CVE-2014-3569, CVE-2015-0204: Airlock WAF is not affected because the configuration and build options "SSL_OP_EPHEMERAL_RSA" and "no-ssl3" are not used.

  • CVE-2015-0205, CVE-2014-8275, CVE-2014-3570: Low public risk rating. Airlock WAF may only be affected in very rare setups (DH keys signed by CA, Certificate Fingerprint based security checks) and the risk of an exploitation is low.
