Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The product name cannot be determined (affected versions not specified)
Description Decryption using ChaCha20-Poly1305 and AES-OCB ciphers may report success without verifying the authentication tag when an empty ciphertext is processed via the EVP Cipher() function. This occurs because the function skips the AEAD (Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data) tag verification in these specific cases. Consequently, applications relying on the return value of EVP Cipher() to confirm message integrity may accept forged messages.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
