CVE-2012-1165

Publication date 15 March 2012

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

The mime_param_cmp function in crypto/asn1/asn_mime.c in OpenSSL before 0.9.8u and 1.x before 1.0.0h allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via a crafted S/MIME message, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-7250.
