Title
Out of bounds write in PKCS12_get_friendlyname() UTF-8 conversion
Summary
Issue summary: Calling PKCS12_get_friendlyname() function on a maliciously crafted PKCS#12 file with a BMPString (UTF-16BE) friendly name containing non-ASCII BMP code point can trigger a one byte write before the allocated buffer. Impact summary: The out-of-bounds write can cause a memory corruption which can have various consequences including a Denial of Service. The OPENSSL_uni2utf8() function performs a two-pass conversion of a PKCS#12 BMPString (UTF-16BE) to UTF-8. In the second pass, when emitting UTF-8 bytes, the helper function bmp_to_utf8() incorrectly forwards the remaining UTF-16 source byte count as the destination buffer capacity to UTF8_putc(). For BMP code points above U+07FF, UTF-8 requires three bytes, but the forwarded capacity can be just two bytes. UTF8_putc() then returns -1, and this negative value is added to the output length without validation, causing the length to become negative. The subsequent trailing NUL byte is then written at a negative offset, causing write outside of heap allocated buffer. The vulnerability is reachable via the public PKCS12_get_friendlyname() API when parsing attacker-controlled PKCS#12 files. While PKCS12_parse() uses a different code path that avoids this issue, PKCS12_get_friendlyname() directly invokes the vulnerable function. Exploitation requires an attacker to provide a malicious PKCS#12 file to be parsed by the application and the attacker can just trigger a one zero byte write before the allocated buffer. For that reason the issue was assessed as Low severity according to our Security Policy. The FIPS modules in 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3 and 3.0 are not affected by this issue, as the PKCS#12 implementation is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary. OpenSSL 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3, 3.0 and 1.1.1 are vulnerable to this issue. OpenSSL 1.0.2 is not affected by this issue.

UTF8_putc() luego devuelve -1, y este valor negativo se a\u00f1ade a la longitud de salida sin validaci\u00f3n, haciendo que la longitud se vuelva negativa. El subsiguiente byte NUL final se escribe entonces en un desplazamiento negativo, causando una escritura fuera del b\u00fafer asignado en el heap.\\n\\nLa vulnerabilidad es alcanzable a trav\u00e9s de la API p\u00fablica PKCS12_get_friendlyname() al analizar archivos PKCS#12 controlados por el atacante. Si bien PKCS12_parse() utiliza una ruta de c\u00f3digo diferente que evita este problema, PKCS12_get_friendlyname() invoca directamente la funci\u00f3n vulnerable. La explotaci\u00f3n requiere que un atacante proporcione un archivo PKCS#12 malicioso para ser analizado por la aplicaci\u00f3n y el atacante puede simplemente desencadenar una escritura de un byte cero antes del b\u00fafer asignado. Por esa raz\u00f3n, el problema fue evaluado como de baja severidad seg\u00fan nuestra Pol\u00edtica de Seguridad.\\n\\nLos m\u00f3dulos FIPS en 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3 y 3.0 no se ven afectados por este problema, ya que la implementaci\u00f3n de PKCS#12 est\u00e1 fuera del l\u00edmite del m\u00f3dulo FIPS de OpenSSL.\\n\\nOpenSSL 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3, 3.0 y 1.1.1 son vulnerables a este problema.\\n\\nOpenSSL 1.0.2 no se ve afectado por este problema.\"}],\"affected\":[{\"source\":\"openssl-security@openssl.org\",\"affectedData\":[{\"vendor\":\"OpenSSL\",\"product\":\"OpenSSL\",\"defaultStatus\":\"unaffected\",\"versions\":[{\"version\":\"3.6.0\",\"lessThan\":\"3.6.1\",\"versionType\":\"semver\",\"status\":\"affected\"},{\"version\":\"3.5.0\",\"lessThan\":\"3.5.5\",\"versionType\":\"semver\",\"status\":\"affected\"},{\"version\":\"3.4.0\",\"lessThan\":\"3.4.4\",\"versionType\":\"semver\",\"status\":\"affected\"},{\"version\":\"3.3.0\",\"lessThan\":\"3.3.6\",\"versionType\":\"semver\",\"status\":\"affected\"},{\"version\":\"3.0.0\",\"lessThan\":\"3.0.19\",\"versionType\":\"semver\",\"status\":\"affected\"},{\"version\":\"1.1.1\",\"lessThan\":\"1.1.1ze\",\"versionType\":\"custom\",\"status\":\"affected\"}]}]},{\"source\":\"0b142b55-0307-4c5a-b3c9-f314f3fb7c5e\",\"affectedData\":[{\"vendor\":\"Siemens\",\"product\":\"SIMATIC S7-1500 TM MFP - GNU/Linux subsystem\",\"defaultStatus\":\"unknown\",\"versions\":[{\"version\":\"0\",\"lessThan\":\"*\",\"versionType\":\"custom\",\"status\":\"affected\"}]}]}],\"metrics\":{\"cvssMetricV31\":[{\"source\":\"134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0\",\"type\":\"Secondary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"3.1\",\"vectorString\":\"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N\",\"baseScore\":7.4,\"baseSeverity\":\"HIGH\",\"attackVector\":\"NETWORK\",\"attackComplexity\":\"HIGH\",\"privilegesRequired\":\"NONE\",\"userInteraction\":\"NONE\",\"scope\":\"UNCHANGED\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"HIGH\",\"integrityImpact\":\"HIGH\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"NONE\"},\"exploitabilityScore\":2.2,\"impactScore\":5.2}],\"ssvcV203\":[{\"source\":\"134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0\",\"ssvcData\":{\"timestamp\":\"2026-01-29T15:09:04.605559Z\",\"id\":\"CVE-2025-69419\",\"options\":[{\"exploitation\":\"none\"},{\"automatable\":\"no\"},{\"technicalImpact\":\"total\"}],\"role\":\"CISA Coordinator\",\"version\":\"2.0.3\"}}]},\"weaknesses\":[{\"source\":\"openssl-security@openssl.org\",\"type\":\"Secondary\",\"description\":[{\"lang\":\"en\",\"value\":\"CWE-787\"}]}],\"configurations\":[{\"nodes\":[{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:a:openssl:openssl:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionStartIncluding\":\"1.1.1\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"1.1.1ze\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"E000B986-6A31-468F-9EA3-B9D16DB16FB2\"},{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:a:openssl:openssl:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionStartIncluding\":\"3.0.0\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"3.0.19\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"C76C5F55-5243-4461-82F5-2FEBFF4D59FA\"},{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:a:openssl:openssl:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionStartIncluding\":\"3.3.0\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"3.3.6\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"F5292E9E-6B50-409F-9219-7B0A04047AD8\"},{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:a:openssl:openssl:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionStartIncluding\":\"3.4.0\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"3.4.4\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"B9D3DCAE-317D-4DFB-93F0-7A235A229619\"},{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:a:openssl:openssl:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionStartIncluding\":\"3.5.0\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"3.5.5\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"1CAC7CBE-EC03-4089-938A-0CEEB2E09B62\"},{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:a:openssl:openssl:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionStartIncluding\":\"3.6.0\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"3.6.1\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"68352537-5E99-4F4D-B78A-BCF0353A70A5\"}]}]}],\"references\":[{\"url\":\"https://github.com/openssl/openssl/commit/41be0f216404f14457bbf3b9cc488dba60b49296\",\"source\":\"openssl-security@openssl.org\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/openssl/openssl/commit/7e9cac9832e4705b91987c2474ed06a37a93cecb\",\"source\":\"openssl-security@openssl.org\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/openssl/openssl/commit/a26a90d38edec3748566129d824e664b54bee2e2\",\"source\":\"openssl-security@openssl.org\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/openssl/openssl/commit/cda12de3bc0e333ea8d2c6fd15001dbdaf280015\",\"source\":\"openssl-security@openssl.org\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/openssl/openssl/commit/ff628933755075446bca8307e8417c14d164b535\",\"source\":\"openssl-security@openssl.org\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\"]},{\"url\":\"https://openssl-library.org/news/secadv/20260127.txt\",\"source\":\"openssl-security@openssl.org\",\"tags\":[\"Vendor Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://cert-portal.siemens.com/productcert/html/ssa-265688.html\",\"source\":\"0b142b55-0307-4c5a-b3c9-f314f3fb7c5e\"}]}}",
