This flaw allows a malicious user to randomly cause an uninitialized buffer length variable with a zeroed buffer to be returned in FIPS mode. It may also be possible to force a false positive match between non-equal hashes when comparing a trusted computed hmac sum to an untrusted input sum if an attacker can send a zeroed buffer in place of a pre-computed sum.  It is also possible to force a derived key to be all zeros instead of an unpredictable value.  This may have follow-on implications for the Go TLS stack.","affected":[{"package":{"name":"github.com/golang-fips/openssl","ecosystem":"Go","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/golang-fips/openssl"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"2.0.3"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2024/10/GHSA-3h3x-2hwv-hr52/GHSA-3h3x-2hwv-hr52.json"}}],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-9355"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/golang-fips/openssl/pull/198"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/pull/4950"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://pkg.go.dev/vuln/GO-2024-3167"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/golang-fips/openssl"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2315719"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-9355"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:59439"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:55525"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:55520"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2025:7624"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2025:7256"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2025:7118"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2025:2416"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2024:9551"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2024:8847"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2024:8678"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2024:8327"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2024:7550"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2024:7502"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2024:10133"}],"database_specific":{"cwe_ids":["CWE-457"],"github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2024-10-01T22:31:42Z","nvd_published_at":"2024-10-01T19:15:09Z","severity":"HIGH"},"severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:L"},{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N"}]}
