Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 security vulnerability.


1) Improper authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-12797)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.

The vulnerability exists due to an error when using RFC7250 Raw Public Keys (RPKs) to authenticate a server. TLS and DTLS connections using raw public keys are vulnerable to man-in-middle attacks when server authentication failure is not detected by clients.

Note, the vulnerability can be exploited only when TLS clients explicitly enable RPK use by the server, and the server, likewise, enables sending of an RPK instead of an X.509 certificate chain.
