Jun 11, 2013 · The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) database outlines the details behind this SSL renegotiation vulnerability in CVE-2009-3555. You can read the details for yourself, but here's what the CVE basically says: TLS and SSLv3 do not properly associate renegotiation handshakes with an existing connection, and this allows attackers to
The vulnerability referenced above is in relation to SSL Renegotiation. SSL Renegotiation is a feature of SSL and the vulnerability referenced only affects certain software and the way that software uses the SSL feature. Due to the way the Management Gateway uses the SSL Renegotiation feature it is not susceptible to this vulnerability. Features prone to vulnerabilities include protocol downgrades, connection renegotiation, and session resumption. Incomplete or vague specifications, particularly when it comes to cross-protocol interactions (i.e. between TLS and application protocols such as HTTP) engender some serious vulnerabilities, particularly in case of cross-protocol Nov 05, 2009 · Multiple Transport Layer Security (TLS) implementations contain a vulnerability when renegotiating a TLS session that could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct a man-in-the-middle attack. The vulnerability exists during a TLS renegotiation process. If an attacker can intercept traffic from a client to a TLS server, the attacker could stage a rogue TLS server to intercept that RFC 5746 TLS Renegotiation Extension February 2010 * If the extension is present, set the secure_renegotiation flag to TRUE. The client MUST then verify that the length of the "renegotiated_connection" field is zero, and if it is not, MUST abort the handshake (by sending a fatal handshake_failure alert). Nov 03, 2011 · Hi I have newly set up NetScaler VPX 1000, version NS9.3: Build 49.5.nc NS is used for load balancing 2 MS Exchange 2010 CAS servers. Both servers and Netscaler LB Vserver use same SSL sertificates, and everything seems to work fine so far. Now I have got warning from my security team that there
This option was introduced as a workaround to a security vulnerability in Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols as mentioned in Citrix security bulletin CTX123359 - Transport Layer Security Renegotiation Vulnerability.
Jan 06, 2020 · The attack is related to a SSL/TLS protocol feature called session renegotiation. The discovered vulnerability could be used to manipulate data received by a client or by a server. For example, a server is vulnerable if it is configured to allow session renegotiation, but is not yet using updated software. The vulnerability referenced above is in relation to SSL Renegotiation. SSL Renegotiation is a feature of SSL and the vulnerability referenced only affects certain software and the way that software uses the SSL feature. Due to the way the Management Gateway uses the SSL Renegotiation feature it is not susceptible to this vulnerability.
Nov 05, 2009 · Details of a new vulnerability involving SSL and TLS has been discovered. The vulnerability involves a flaw in renegotiation and allows man-in-the-middle attackers to surreptitiously introduce text at the beginning of an SSL session. Ivan Ristic explained some of the details of the SSL Renegotiation attack:
Microsoft has completed the investigation into a public report of this vulnerability. We have issued MS10-049 to address this issue. For more information about this issue, including download links for an available security update, please review MS10-049. The vulnerability addressed is the TLS/SSL Renegotiation Vulnerability - CVE-2009-3555. The TLS protocol, and the SSL protocol 3.0 and possibly earlier, as used in Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 7.0, mod_ssl in the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.14 and earlier, OpenSSL before 0.9.8l, GnuTLS 2.8.5 and earlier, Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS) 3.12.4 and earlier, multiple Cisco products, and other products, does not properly associate renegotiation handshakes with an existing connection, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to insert data into HTTPS sessions Multiple vendors TLS protocol implementations are prone to a security vulnerability related to the session-renegotiation process which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to insert data into HTTPS sessions, and possibly other types of sessions protected by TLS or SSL, by sending an unauthenticated request that is processed retroactively by a server in a post-renegotiation context. The SSL/TLS protocol didn't provide a mechanism to verify that the session peers hadn't changed in the renegotiation process, so it was possible for a server to accept the request from the attacker because it didn't verify that the renegotiation request came from the client and only the client.
