CVE-2013-3707 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The HTTPSTK service in the novell-nrm package before 2.0.2-297.305.302.3 in Novell Open Enterprise Server 2 (OES 2) Linux, and OES 11 Linux Gold and SP1, does not make the intended SSL_free and SSL_shutdown calls for the close of a TCP connection, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (service crash) by establishing many TCP connections to port 8009.. EPSS estimates a 1.58% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
