LOW 2.3

DescriptionCVE.org

Heap out-of-bounds read in PKCS7 parsing. A crafted PKCS7 message can trigger an OOB read on the heap. The missing bounds check is in the indefinite-length end-of-content verification loop in PKCS7_VerifySignedData().

AnalysisAI

Heap out-of-bounds read in wolfSSL versions prior to 5.9.1 allows unauthenticated attackers on an adjacent network to trigger information disclosure via a crafted PKCS7 message that bypasses bounds checking in the indefinite-length end-of-content verification loop. The vulnerability has a low CVSS score of 2.3 due to restricted attack vector (adjacent network only) and limited integrity impact, with no public exploit code identified at time of analysis.

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Risk Assessment This vulnerability presents a low real-world risk despite being a memory safety issue. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker on the same adjacent network segment crafts a malicious PKCS7 message with an indefinite-length encoding that triggers the bounds-checking bypass in PKCS7_VerifySignedData(). When the target system processes this message (e.g., during TLS handshake or message validation), the out-of-bounds read exposes heap memory contents that may contain sensitive cryptographic material or application secrets. …
Remediation Vendor-released patch: wolfSSL 5.9.1 and later versions. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Threat intelligence, references, and detailed analysis are available after sign-in.
