Re: heartbleed OpenSSL bug CVE-2014-0160

[Peter Malone <peter () petermalone org>]

Unless I'm mistaken, the following memcmp is vulnerable to a remote
timing attack.
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/master/ssl/ssl_lib.c#L1974
static int ssl_session_cmp(const SSL_SESSION *a,const SSL_SESSION *b)  
{  
  if (a->ssl_version != b->ssl_version)  
       return(1);  
  if (a->session_id_length != b->session_id_length)  
       return(1);  
  return(memcmp(a->session_id,b->session_id,a->session_id_length));  
}
