Last modified

CVE-2014-4911 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The ssl_decrypt_buf function in library/ssl_tls.c in PolarSSL before 1.2.11 and 1.3.x before 1.3.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via vectors related to the GCM ciphersuites, as demonstrated using the Codenomicon Defensics toolkit.. EPSS estimates a 2.43% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
