Summary

Hide ▲

The OpenSSL Project released 3.5.4, 3.4.3, 3.3.5, 3.2.6, 3.0.18, 1.0.2zm and 1.1.1zd to fix CVE-2025-9230, CVE-2025-9231 and CVE-2025-9232. The update matters because OpenSSL is widely used by applications, websites and services for SSL/TLS communications. One flaw may allow private key recovery on the SM2 algorithm implementation on 64-bit ARM platforms. Another is an out-of-bound read/write issue that can enable arbitrary code execution or DoS, while the third can trigger a crash/DoS.

    OpenSSL vulnerabilities can expose private keys, code execution and DoS risk

    Technical Analysis Update

    CVE-2025-9231 may allow private key recovery in the SM2 algorithm implementation on 64-bit ARM platforms, CVE-2025-9230 is an out-of-bound read/write issue that may enable arbitrary code execution or DoS, and the third vulnerability can trigger a crash that results in DoS; OpenSSL is widely used to secure communications, so private key exposure could let an attacker decrypt encrypted traffic or conduct a man-in-the-middle attack.
