An attack is simple, if the first CMS_recipientInfo is valid but the second CMS_recipientInfo is chosen ciphertext. If the second recipientInfo decodes to PKCS openssl#1 v1.5 form plaintext, the correct encryption key will be replaced by garbage, and the message cannot be decoded, but if the RSA decryption fails, the correct encryption key is used and the recipient will not notice the attack. As a work around for this potential attack the length of the decrypted key must be equal to the cipher default key length, in case the certifiate is not given and all recipientInfo are tried out. The old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag.

Re-based to resolve merge conflict in CHANGES |

Something for tomorrow? |

Darn. I forgot to merge this one before the other CHANGES/NEWS updates went in - which now cause merge conflicts in CHANGES. I intend to resolve those conflicts manually by replacing the existing text about this issue with the CHANGES entry in this PR (but keeping the CVE number) |

In the end the conflicts that came up were trivial so I just fixed them. They resulted in duplicate CHANGES entries for this particular issue, and the resolution to that was beyond what I considered trivial - so I pushed "as is" and plan to fix up CHANGES in a subsequent PR. Pushed to master, 1.1.1, 1.1.0 and 1.0.2 |
