Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
MatrixSSL versions prior to 3.8.3
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, specifically an out-of-bounds read, by sending a crafted message. This is related to TLS cipher suites with CBC mode in TLS 1.1 and 1.2.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 3.8.3, update to version 3.8.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of TLS cipher suites with CBC mode in TLS 1.1 and 1.2 until a patch is available.
