CVSS Meta Temp Score CVSS is a standardized scoring system to determine possibilities of attacks. The Temp Score considers temporal factors like disclosure, exploit and countermeasures. The unique Meta Score calculates the average score of different sources to provide a normalized scoring system.	Current Exploit Price (≈) Our analysts are monitoring exploit markets and are in contact with vulnerability brokers. The range indicates the observed or calculated exploit price to be seen on exploit markets. A good indicator to understand the monetary effort required for and the popularity of an attack.	CTI Interest Score Our Cyber Threat Intelligence team is monitoring different web sites, mailing lists, exploit markets and social media networks. The CTI Interest Score identifies the interest of attackers and the security community for this specific vulnerability in real-time. A high score indicates an elevated risk to be targeted for this vulnerability.

A vulnerability was found in OpenSSL (Network Encryption Software). It has been rated as critical. Affected by this issue is an unknown function of the component ECDH Handshake Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a cryptographic issues vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-310. Impacted is integrity.

The weakness was released 01/08/2015 by Karthikeyan Bhargavan with Prosecco as secadv_20150108.txt as confirmed advisory (Website). The advisory is shared for download at openssl.org. The public release was coordinated with the vendor. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2014-3572 since 05/14/2014. The exploitation is known to be difficult. The attack needs to be approached locally. No form of authentication is required for exploitation. There are neither technical details nor an exploit publicly available. The MITRE ATT&CK project declares the attack technique as T1600. The advisory points out:

An OpenSSL client will accept a handshake using an ephemeral ECDH ciphersuite using an ECDSA certificate if the server key exchange message is omitted. This effectively removes forward secrecy from the ciphersuite.

The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 84058 (MS KB3062760: Update for Vulnerability in Juniper Networks Windows In-Box Junos Pulse Client (FREAK)), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Windows and running in the context l. The commercial vulnerability scanner Qualys is able to test this issue with plugin 185099 (HP-UX Running OpenSSL Multiple Vulnerabilities (HPSBUX03244)).

Upgrading to version 0.9.8zd, 1.0.0p or 1.0.1k eliminates this vulnerability. A possible mitigation has been published 6 months after the disclosure of the vulnerability. The advisory contains the following remark:

The fix was developed by Stephen Henson of the OpenSSL core team.

The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (99705) and Tenable (84058). Entries connected to this vulnerability are available at 68514, 68515, 68517 and 68518.
