K92451315: OpenSSL vulnerability CVE-2020-1968

Original Publication Date: 11 Dec, 2020
Latest   Publication Date: 29 Dec, 2020

Security Advisory Description

The Raccoon attack exploits a flaw in the TLS specification which can lead to
an attacker being able to compute the pre-master secret in connections which
have used a Diffie-Hellman (DH) based ciphersuite. In such a case this would
result in the attacker being able to eavesdrop on all encrypted communications
sent over that TLS connection. The attack can only be exploited if an
implementation re-uses a DH secret across multiple TLS connections. Note that
this issue only impacts DH ciphersuites and not ECDH ciphersuites. This issue
affects OpenSSL 1.0.2 which is out of support and no longer receiving public
updates. OpenSSL 1.1.1 is not vulnerable to this issue. Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2w
(Affected 1.0.2-1.0.2v). (CVE-2020-1968)

Impact

An attacker may be able to exploit OpenSSL Transport Layer Security (TLS),
which allows unauthorized exposure of information when Diffie-Hellman (DH)
secrets are reused across multiple TLS connections.

Security Advisory Recommended Actions

If you are running a version listed in the Versions known to be vulnerable
column, you can eliminate this vulnerability by upgrading to a version listed
in the Fixes introduced in column. If the table lists only an older version
than what you are currently running, or does not list a non-vulnerable version,
then no upgrade candidate currently exists.

Mitigation

To mitigate this vulnerability, you can disable DH ciphersuites key exchanges
in the vulnerable components. The Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH)
ciphersuites exchanges are not affected. To disable the DH ciphersuites in the
SSL profile, perform the following procedure:

Impact of procedure: Performing the following procedure should not have a
negative impact on your system. The changes take effect when you associate the
new SSL profile to a virtual server.

 1. Log in to the Configuration utility.
 2. Go to Local Traffic > Profiles > SSL > Client.
 3. Select Create to create a new profile.
 4. For the new profile, under General Properties, enter a name.
 5. Set Configuration to Advanced.
 6. For Ciphers, select the Custom check box.
 7. For Ciphers, select Cipher Suites.

    Note: In BIG-IP 13.x, select Cipher String. In BIG-IP 11.x - 12.x, skip
    this step.

 8. For Ciphers, enter a cipher string.

    For example, to disable the TLSv1 protocol and DHE ciphers, use the
    following syntax:

    DEFAULT:!TLSv1:!DHE

 9. Configure the remaining profile settings.
10. Select Finished.

For more information on configuring ciphers on SSL profiles, refer to K13171:
Configuring the cipher strength for SSL profiles (11.x)
