FKIE_CVE-2017-1000385

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2017-12-12 21:29 - Updated: 2026-06-17 00:59
Severity
5.9 (Medium) - CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N
Summary
The Erlang otp TLS server answers with different TLS alerts to different error types in the RSA PKCS #1 1.5 padding. This allows an attacker to decrypt content or sign messages with the server's private key (this is a variation of the Bleichenbacher attack).
