CVE-2008-0226

Publication date 10 January 2008

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

Multiple buffer overflows in yaSSL 1.7.5 and earlier, as used in MySQL and possibly other products, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) the ProcessOldClientHello function in handshake.cpp or (2) "input_buffer& operator>>" in yassl_imp.cpp.
