Memory Leak When Processing Certificates in PKCS#7 Containers
AnalysisAI
Memory exhaustion via PKCS#7 certificate processing affects an Ubuntu-packaged cryptographic component, allowing crafted certificate containers to gradually leak heap memory. The vulnerable component is reported by Ubuntu but the specific library (e.g., OpenSSL, GnuTLS, or another ASN.1/PKCS#7 parser) is not identified in available data. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The vulnerable service must accept externally-supplied PKCS#7 certificate data - for example, a TLS server configured with client certificate authentication (mTLS), an S/MIME mail gateway, or a code-signing or package verification daemon. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Available signals for this CVE are sparse: no CVSS vector, no EPSS score, no KEV listing, no CPE, and no POC reference have been provided. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | No patch version or vendor advisory URL is provided in the available data. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
