What to do
AI-suggested
In the meantime, consider reviewing server configurations related to DHE key agreement and public key order validation to limit exposure. Monitoring for unusual resource consumption patterns related to DHE operations may help detect exploitation attempts.
Description
Validating the order of the public keys in the Diffie-Hellman Key Agreement Protocol, when an approved safe prime is used, allows remote attackers (from the client side) to trigger unnecessarily expensive server-side DHE modular-exponentiation calculations. The client may cause asymmetric resource consumption. The basic attack scenario is that the client must claim that it can only communicate with DHE, and the server must be configured to allow DHE and validate the order of the public key.
