Echoping is a small program to test performances of a + remote host by sending it TCP packets. +

+
+ +

A boundary error exists within the “TLS_readline()” function, which + can be exploited to overflow a global buffer by sending an overly long + encrypted HTTP reply to Echoping. Also, a similar boundary error exists + within the “SSL_readline()” function, which can be exploited in the + same manner. +

+
+ +

A remote attacker could send a specially crafted HTTP reply, possibly + resulting in a Denial of Service condition. +

+
+ +

There is no known workaround at this time.

+
+ +

All Echoping users should upgrade to the latest version:
