SSL: OpenSSL DTLS dtls1_buffer_record Denial of Service

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against OpenSSL DTLS packets. A successful attack can result in a denial-of-service condition.

Extended Description

Memory leak in the dtls1_buffer_record function in d1_pkt.c in OpenSSL 1.0.0 before 1.0.0p and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1k allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by sending many duplicate records for the next epoch, leading to failure of replay detection.
