Amazon Linux 2023 Security Advisory: ALAS-2023-019
Advisory Release Date: 2023-02-17 20:43 Pacific
Advisory Updated Date: 2023-02-22 23:53 Pacific
Severity:
Medium
Issue Overview:
ALPACA is an application layer protocol content confusion attack, exploiting TLS servers implementing different protocols but using compatible certificates, such as multi-domain or wildcard certificates. A MiTM attacker having access to victim's traffic at the TCP/IP layer can redirect traffic from one subdomain to another, resulting in a valid TLS session. This breaks the authentication of TLS and cross-protocol attacks may be possible where the behavior of one protocol service may compromise the other at the application layer. (CVE-2021-3618)
