Hello, We have encountered a Segmentation Fault while trying to send a SSL packet via Oracle VM agent.
The Segmentation Fault occurred when EVP_MD_CTX_copy() failed in tls1_mac(). tls1_mac() doesn't check the return code of EVP_MD_CTX_copy() and keep going, which results in Segmentation Fault at EVP_DigestUpdate(). The following change in tls1_mac() fixes the segfault issue. 1 Index: openssl/ssl/t1_enc.c 2 ============================================================================ 3 $ diff -ru ssl/t1_enc.c ssl/t1_enc.c 4 --- t1_enc.c.orig Tue Dec 10 15:36:05 2013 5 +++ t1_enc.c Wed Dec 11 09:29:02 2013 6 @@ -980,7 +980,10 @@ 7 } 8 else 9 { 10 - EVP_MD_CTX_copy(&hmac,hash); 11 + if (EVP_MD_CTX_copy(&hmac,hash) != 1) 12 + { 13 + return (0); 14 + } 15 mac_ctx =&hmac; 16 } 17 I would greatly appreciate it if the suggest fix gets integrated into the next release of OpenSSL.
