CVE-2015-2808

The RC4 algorithm, as used in the TLS protocol and SSL protocol, does not properly combine state data with key data during the initialization phase, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct plaintext-recovery attacks against the initial bytes of a stream by sniffing network traffic that occasionally relies on keys affected by the Invariance Weakness, and then using a brute-force approach involving LSB values, aka the "Bar Mitzvah" issue.

El algoritmo RC4, utilizado en el protocolo TLS y el protocolo SSL, no combina correctamente los datos de estados con los datos de claves durante la fase de inicialización, lo que facilita a atacantes remotos realizar ataques de recuperación de texto claro contra los bytes iniciales de un flujo mediante la captura de trafico de la red que ocasionalmente depende de claves afectadas por la debilidad de la invariabilidad (Invariance Weakness), y posteriormente utilizar un acercamiento de fuerza bruta que involucra valores LSB, también conocido como el problema de 'Bar Mitzvah'.
