Last modified

CVE-2002-0082 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The dbm and shm session cache code in mod_ssl before 2.8.7-1.3.23, and Apache-SSL before 1.3.22+1.46, does not properly initialize memory using the i2d_SSL_SESSION function, which allows remote attackers to use a buffer overflow to execute arbitrary code via a large client certificate that is signed by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA), which produces a large serialized session.. EPSS estimates a 29.88% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
