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-2017-8855 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Wolfssl Wolfssl. 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-2017-8855/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8855/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-8855","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8855/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-8855","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2017-8855","GHSA-9pgp-f7j2-6cwq","UBUNTU-CVE-2017-8855"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"wolfSSL library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A flaw in wolfSSL allows accepting malformed Diffie-Hellman keys, potentially causing denial of service or unexpected behavior.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"wolfssl","vendor":"wolfssl"}],"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:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"wolfSSL before 3.11.0 does not prevent wc_DhAgree from accepting a malformed DH key.","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":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8855","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"wolfssl:wolfssl","products":["wolfssl:wolfssl"],"type":"other","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8856"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8854"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-05-09","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Buffer overread in domain name matching","id":"CVE-2024-5991","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-08-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-37155","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-07-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-36177","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-01-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-2896","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-28"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-2897","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-28"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-2898","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-28"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-16748","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-09-24"}],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-16","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"A flaw in wolfSSL allows accepting malformed Diffie-Hellman keys, potentially causing denial of service or unexpected behavior.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8855/"}
