-- Vulnerability Details:
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on
vulnerable installations of Icon Labs Iconfidant SSL Server.
Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.

The specific flaw exists in the functionality responsible for key
exchange. If the sum of specific length fields within a client master
key packet exceeds 0x4000, a static buffer can be overflowed leading to
arbitrary code execution on the affected system.

Icon Labs states that this issue was first fixed in Iconfidant SSL 1.3.0
and recommends upgrading to Iconfidant 1.3.1.  Please contact Icon Labs
at support@xxxxxxxxxxxxx to update the latest Iconfidant SSL software.
