The DTLS retransmission implementation in OpenSSL 1.0.0 before 1.0.0l and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1f does not properly maintain data structures for digest and encryption contexts, which might allow man-in-the-middle attackers to trigger the use of a different context and cause a denial of service (application crash) by interfering with packet delivery, related to ssl/d1_both.c and ssl/t1_enc.c.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an OpenSSL DTLS flaw that can let a network man-in-the-middle trigger an application crash. The impact described is denial of service, not data theft or code execution. Business urgency depends on whether affected OpenSSL versions support DTLS in production services. Exposure is most likely in systems or products using vulnerable OpenSSL libraries for DTLS. The bundle does not provide complete CPEs, so confirm through package inventories, SBOMs, and downstream vendor advisories. Treat as a targeted availability risk. Patch during normal vulnerability remediation, escalating priority for critical services using DTLS or products identified by vendor advisories. Mitigation focus: Upgrade to OpenSSL 1.0.0l, 1.0.1f, or vendor-supported fixed packages.; Review operating system and product advisories for backported fixes.; Prioritize externally reachable or availability-critical DTLS services..
