What is CVE-2014-4192?

CVE-2014-4192 is a medium-severity vulnerability in n/a, published on 17 Jun 2014. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

Official description

The Dual_EC_DRBG implementation in EMC RSA BSAFE-C Toolkits (aka Share for C and C++) processes certain requests for output bytes by considering only the requested byte count and not the use of cached bytes, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain plaintext from TLS sessions by recovering the algorithm's inner state, a different issue than CVE-2007-6755.

Weakness: CWE-310
