  • CWE-400 - Uncontrolled Resource Consumption
Summary
src/internal.c in wolfSSL wolfSSH through 1.5.0 admits the server-to-client Diffie-Hellman group exchange messages SSH_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_GROUP (31) and SSH_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REPLY (33) when a server receives them from an unauthenticated client. IsMessageAllowedServer() applies no direction check to the key exchange message range: when the peer is keying and no particular message is expected, which is the state a server is in for the whole window after it processes the client's KEXINIT because nothing sets handshake->expectMsgId there, the function falls out of its expectation branch without a verdict and reaches a numeric bound that admits every message id from 30 through 34. A client that negotiates diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256 and then sends message 31 makes the server run the client-side handler DoKexDhGexGroup(), which validates the attacker-supplied group with two 8-round Miller-Rabin primality tests, one on p and one on (p-1)/2, on a value of up to 8192 bits. The handler then returns success: the server stores the attacker's prime and generator, generates a Diffie-Hellman key pair in the attacker's group, and sends the client-role message SSH_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_INIT (32) back to the attacker. Published RFC 3526 safe primes are the worst-case input and cost the attacker nothing to obtain. The primality validation was added in 1.5.0; versions from 1.2.0 through 1.4.22 admit the same message and enter the same client-role path without the primality cost. Message 33 is admitted as well, but on a server it is rejected before any cryptography because no public key check callback is registered, so it carries no comparable cost. Builds that define WOLFSSH_NO_DH_GEX_SHA256, which is implied by WOLFSSH_NO_DH or NO_SHA256, are unaffected.

One unauthenticated packet of roughly 1 KB costs a wolfSSH server about 0.48 seconds of single-core CPU when it carries the 4096-bit RFC 3526 safe prime, and about 5.8 seconds when it carries the 8192-bit one, measured on a 64-bit desktop core; a single-threaded or embedded server is unavailable for that whole interval, and the cost repeats on every connection. The server then stores the attacker-chosen group, generates a Diffie-Hellman key pair in it, and sends the client-role message SSH_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_INIT back to the attacker, so the key exchange continues in the wrong role until it fails. Reaching the 8192-bit case requires a wolfSSL math configuration that can represent an 8192-bit integer; a default build tops out near 4096 bits and caps the burn at roughly half a second.\"}]}, {\"capecId\": \"CAPEC-227\", \"descriptions\": [{\"lang\": \"en\", \"value\": \"CAPEC-227 Sustained Client Engagement\"}]}], \"metrics\": [{\"format\": \"CVSS\", \"cvssV4_0\": {\"Safety\": \"NOT_DEFINED\", \"version\": \"4.0\", \"Recovery\": \"NOT_DEFINED\", \"baseScore\": 6.9, \"Automatable\": \"YES\", \"attackVector\": \"NETWORK\", \"baseSeverity\": \"MEDIUM\", \"valueDensity\": \"NOT_DEFINED\", \"vectorString\": \"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/AU:Y\", \"exploitMaturity\": \"NOT_DEFINED\", \"providerUrgency\": \"NOT_DEFINED\", \"userInteraction\": \"NONE\", \"attackComplexity\": \"LOW\", \"attackRequirements\": \"NONE\", \"privilegesRequired\": \"NONE\", \"subIntegrityImpact\": \"NONE\", \"vulnIntegrityImpact\": \"NONE\", \"subAvailabilityImpact\": \"NONE\", \"vulnAvailabilityImpact\": \"LOW\", \"subConfidentialityImpact\": \"NONE\", \"vulnConfidentialityImpact\": \"NONE\", \"vulnerabilityResponseEffort\": \"NOT_DEFINED\"}, \"scenarios\": [{\"lang\": \"en\", \"value\": \"GENERAL\"}]}], \"affected\": [{\"repo\": \"https://github.com/wolfSSL/wolfssh\", \"vendor\": \"wolfSSL Inc.\", \"modules\": [\"key exchange\"], \"product\": \"wolfSSH\", \"versions\": [{\"status\": \"affected\", \"changes\": [{\"at\": \"1.6.0\", \"status\": \"unaffected\"}], \"version\": \"1.2.0\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"1.5.0\"}], \"programFiles\": [\"src/internal.c\"], \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\", \"programRoutines\": [{\"name\": \"IsMessageAllowedServer\"}, {\"name\": \"DoKexDhGexGroup\"}, {\"name\": \"ValidateKexDhGexGroup\"}]}], \"references\": [{\"url\": \"https://github.com/wolfSSL/wolfssh/pull/1221\", \"name\": \"Fix PR #1221\", \"tags\": [\"patch\"]}, {\"url\": \"https://github.com/wolfSSL/wolfssh/commit/a472f1ee2b653f623d85ef2297321733f1dbfd22\", \"name\": \"Fix commit a472f1ee (reject the KEX replies a server never receives)\", \"tags\": [\"patch\"]}, {\"url\": \"https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4419.html\", \"name\": \"RFC 4419 sections 3 and 5 (SSH_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_GROUP and SSH_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REPLY are sent by the server)\", \"tags\": [\"technical-description\"]}, {\"url\": \"https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3526.html\", \"name\": \"RFC 3526 (published MODP safe primes usable as the worst-case input)\", \"tags\": [\"technical-description\"]}], \"workarounds\": [{\"lang\": \"en\", \"value\": \"Build wolfSSH with WOLFSSH_NO_DH_GEX_SHA256 defined so that diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256 is neither offered nor accepted, which removes the message 31 dispatch path entirely.
