CVE-2013-6449
The ssl_get_algorithm2 function in ssl/s3_lib.c in OpenSSL before 1.0.2 obtains a certain version number from an incorrect data structure, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via crafted traffic from a TLS 1.2 client.
Does this matter?
EPSS puts the probability of exploitation in the next 30 days at 21.2%, higher than 97% of all known CVEs. Patch or mitigate before the next change window.
