Tracker summary

CVE-2011-1923 medium priority: Ubuntu including 1 source packages (polarssl), 10 status rows across 10 suites (hardy, lucid, maverick, natty, oneiric, precise, quantal, raring, saucy, upstream): not-affected 5, ignored 3, DNE 1, released 1.

Description:

The Diffie-Hellman key-exchange implementation in dhm.c in PolarSSL before 0.14.2 does not properly validate a public parameter, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain the shared secret key by modifying network traffic, a related issue to CVE-2011-5095.
