CVE

CVE-2014-2234


TITLE

Apple OS X of OpenSSL Specific for Apple Vulnerabilities in patches that prevent additional validation within custom applications

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2014-001565

DESCRIPTION

A certain Apple patch for OpenSSL in Apple OS X 10.9.2 and earlier uses a Trust Evaluation Agent (TEA) feature without terminating certain TLS/SSL handshakes as specified in the SSL_CTX_set_verify callback function's documentation, which allows remote attackers to bypass extra verification within a custom application via a crafted certificate chain that is acceptable to TEA but not acceptable to that application. Apple Mac OS X is prone to a security-bypass vulnerability. Successfully exploiting this issue allows attackers to perform man-in-the-middle attacks and bypass certain security restrictions. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability with a specially crafted certificate chain to bypass authentication
