The TLS protocol 1.1 and 1.2 and the DTLS protocol 1.0 and 1.2, as used in OpenSSL, OpenJDK, PolarSSL, and other products, do not properly consider timing side-channel attacks on a MAC check requirement during the processing of malformed CBC padding, which allows remote attackers to conduct distinguishing attacks and plaintext-recovery attacks via statistical analysis of timing data for crafted packets, aka the "Lucky Thirteen" issue.

Are you affected?

Enter the version you run. The result uses only the ranges stored on this record.

The check returns affected, not affected, or incomplete. It does not guess a version that is missing from the record.

  • cpe openssl/openssl>= 0.9.8, <= 0.9.8x
  • cpe openssl/openssl>= 1.0.0, <= 1.0.0j
  • cpe openssl/openssl>= 1.0.1, <= 1.0.1d
  • cpe oracle/openjdk1.6.0
