CVE-ID : CVE-2021-20231 CVE-2021-20232
Package : gnutls
Type : arbitrary code execution
Remote : Yes
Link : https://security.archlinux.org/AVG-1674
The package gnutls before version 3.7.1-1 is vulnerable to arbitrary
code execution.
Upgrade to 3.7.1-1.
The problems have been fixed upstream in version 3.7.1.
None.
A security issue was found in GnuTLS before version 3.7.1. It was found
that the client sending a “key_share” extension may result in
dereferencing a pointer no longer valid after realloc(). This only
happens in TLS 1.3 and only when the client sends a large Client Hello
message, e.g., when HRR is sent in a resumed session previously
negotiated large FFDHE parameters, because the initial allocation of
the buffer is large enough without having to call realloc().

A remote attacker might be able to cause a denial of service or
possibly execute arbitrary code when a TLS client is resuming a TLS 1.3
session.
