CVE-2013-2061

An information leak in the implementation of HMAC comparisons can allow a
chosen ciphertext attack. This is currently only known to be exploitable with
PolarSSL (which isn't used in UCS) and generally only exploitable with an
attacker being the man-in-the-middle.

Comment 1 Moritz Muehlenhoff univentionstaff 2013-07-26 14:18:37 CEST
Fixed in 3.2 through the import of Debian 6.0.8.

The QA should ideally be made by the same person as for Bug 31956.
