Summary

Details:

The TLS protocol 1.2 and earlier (CVE-2012-4929) can encrypt compressed data without properly obfuscating the length of the unencrypted data, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain plaintext HTTP headers by observing length differences during a series of guesses in which a string in an HTTP request potentially matches an unknown string in an HTTP header, aka a "CRIME" attack.

The SPDY protocol 3 and earlier (CVE-2012-4030), when configured to perform TLS encrption, is similarly vulnerable.

Fix:

Disablng HTTPS compression eliminates the conditions under which this vulnerability could be used to attack a web browser. We have patched the affected code to disable TLS compression.

Recommendation:

Upgrade to patched version if applicable.
