Memory leak in d1_both.c in the DTLS implementation in OpenSSL 0.9.8 before 0.9.8zb, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0n, and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1i allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via zero-length DTLS fragments that trigger improper handling of the return value of a certain insert function.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2014-3507 is an OpenSSL DTLS memory leak. A remote party could make a vulnerable DTLS service consume memory and become unavailable. The sources describe denial of service, not data theft or code execution. Exposure is most likely on legacy systems, appliances, or applications using vulnerable OpenSSL DTLS code. TLS-only services without DTLS are less directly exposed, but linked libraries and bundled vendor products still need inventory review. Treat this as a targeted legacy availability risk. It is not a current KEV item in the provided sources, but exposed DTLS services running old OpenSSL should be remediated because attackers can potentially disrupt service remotely. Mitigation focus: Upgrade OpenSSL to 0.9.8zb, 1.0.0n, 1.0.1i, or later supported vendor packages.; Apply relevant operating system or appliance advisories from OpenSSL, SUSE, Oracle, IBM, HP, Huawei, McAfee, or Gentoo.; Disable DTLS on services where it is not required..
