Description

The ssl_set_client_disabled function in t1_lib.c in OpenSSL 1.0.1 before 1.0.1i allows remote SSL servers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and client application crash) via a ServerHello message that includes an SRP ciphersuite without the required negotiation of that ciphersuite with the client.

Statement

Not vulnerable. This issue did not affect the versions of openssl as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, 6 and 7, Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3, and Red Hat Enterprise Storage 2, as they do not enable Secure Remote Password (SRP) support. All other supported Red Hat products that include openssl use older versions that are not affected by this issue.
