Title:
X509 certificate verification problem
Status in keepalived package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
When using OpenSSL, one needs to follow a certain process to ensure
the verification of the certificate is successful. But we believe that
keepalived didn't follow the correct process of verifying X509
certificate which makes certain attacks possible.
We found the vulnerability by static analysis, typically, a process of
verfication involves calling a chain of API, and we can deduce whether the
communication process is vulnerable by detecting whether the process satisfies
a certain relation.
The result format is like this:
notice: Line Number@Method Name, Source File
We provide this result to help developers to locate the problem
faster.
This is the result for keepalived:
PDG]ssl_connect'1
[Found]SSL_connect()
[HASH] 1598777261 [LineNo]@ 211[Kind]call-site[Char] SSL_connect()[Src]
/home/roca/workspace/codebase/code/ubuntu_pkg/keepalived/keepalived-1.2.2/keepalived/check/check_ssl.c
[Warning] SSL_new() not found!
[PDG]ssl_connect
[Found]SSL_connect()
[HASH] 2061808858 [LineNo]@ 107[Kind]call-site[Char] SSL_connect()[Src]
/home/roca/workspace/codebase/code/ubuntu_pkg/keepalived/keepalived-1.2.2/genhash/ssl.c
[Warning] SSL_new() not found!
We don't have a POC because we didn't succeed in configuring this
software or don't know the way to verify the vulnerability. But
through the analysis of the source code, we believe it breaks the ssl
certificate verfication protocol.
