- Details
-
Memory leak in the zlibstatefulinit function in crypto/comp/czlib.c in libssl in OpenSSL 0.9.8f through 0.9.8h allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via multiple calls, as demonstrated by initial SSL client handshakes to the Apache HTTP Server modssl that specify a compression algorithm.
