An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-6302 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Openssl Openssl. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6302/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6302/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-6302","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6302/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-6302","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2016-6302","DEBIAN-CVE-2016-6302","GHSA-h9vm-qp4h-23fm","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-6302"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"OpenSSL library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service in OpenSSL by sending a TLS ticket that is too short, bypassing HMAC size validation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"openssl","vendor":"openssl"},{"product":"linux","vendor":"oracle"},{"product":"solaris","vendor":"oracle"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"The tls_decrypt_ticket function in ssl/t1_lib.c in OpenSSL before 1.1.0 does not consider the HMAC size during validation of the ticket length, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a ticket that is too short.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6302","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"openssl:openssl","products":["openssl:openssl","oracle:linux","oracle:solaris"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":26,"next":{"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6303"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6301"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-09-16","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3245","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-03-05"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-3738","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-09-28"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Untrusted Sender DN Used as Format String in CMP Response Validation","id":"CVE-2026-63073","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6309","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-09-26"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-0799","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-03-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-2842","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-03-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0545","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-10-01"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service in OpenSSL by sending a TLS ticket that is too short, bypassing HMAC size validation.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6302/"}
