The\nTimeStamp protocol (RFC 3161) is not widely used and the impact of the\nexploit is just a Denial of Service. For these reasons the issue was\nassessed as Low severity.\n\nThe FIPS modules in 3.5, 3.4, 3.3 and 3.0 are not affected by this issue,\nas the TimeStamp Response implementation is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module\nboundary.\n\nOpenSSL 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3, 3.0 and 1.1.1 are vulnerable to this issue.\n\nOpenSSL 1.0.2 is not affected by this issue."}, {"lang": "es", "value": "Resumen del problema: Existe una vulnerabilidad de confusi\u00f3n de tipos en el c\u00f3digo de verificaci\u00f3n de la Respuesta de Marca de Tiempo donde se accede a un miembro de uni\u00f3n ASN1_TYPE sin validar primero el tipo, causando una desreferencia de puntero inv\u00e1lido o NULL al procesar un archivo de Respuesta de Marca de Tiempo malformado.\n\nResumen del impacto: Una aplicaci\u00f3n que llama a TS_RESP_verify_response() con una Respuesta de Marca de Tiempo malformada puede ser inducida a desreferenciar un puntero inv\u00e1lido o NULL al leer, resultando en una denegaci\u00f3n de servicio.\n\nLas funciones ossl_ess_get_signing_cert() y ossl_ess_get_signing_cert_v2() acceden al valor del atributo del certificado de firma sin validar su tipo. Cuando el tipo no es V_ASN1_SEQUENCE, esto resulta en el acceso a memoria inv\u00e1lida a trav\u00e9s de la uni\u00f3n ASN1_TYPE, causando un fallo.\n\nExplotar esta vulnerabilidad requiere que un atacante proporcione una Respuesta de Marca de Tiempo malformada a una aplicaci\u00f3n que verifica las respuestas de marca de tiempo. El protocolo de Marca de Tiempo (RFC 3161) no es ampliamente utilizado y el impacto del exploit es solo una denegaci\u00f3n de servicio.
