asn1

About this tag
The ASN.1 tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about Abstract Syntax Notation One, a standard used in cryptography and industrial systems. Recent threads highlight security vulnerabilities involving ASN.1 parsing, such as CVE-2025-66030 in the node-forge library, where specially crafted Object Identifiers (OIDs) could be mis-parsed due to integer truncation, allowing OID spoofing. Another thread addresses CVE-2021-3712 in OpenSSL, affecting Siemens industrial products, where out-of-bounds reads in ASN.1 handling pose operational risks. These topics reflect the tag's focus on ASN.1-related security issues, patching, and mitigation strategies in both software libraries and industrial control systems.

  1. CVE-2025-66030 Node-forge OID Parsing Fix in 1.3.2

    A recently disclosed vulnerability in the widely used JavaScript cryptography library node-forge—tracked as CVE-2025-66030—allows specially crafted ASN.1 Object Identifier (OID) values to be mis-parsed due to integer truncation, letting an attacker spoof OIDs and potentially bypass downstream...

  2. Siemens OpenSSL CVE-2021-3712: Patch and mitigate ICS risk (SSA-244969)

    Siemens and upstream OpenSSL vulnerabilities that allow out-of-bounds reads — tracked under CVE-2021-3712 — remain a live operational risk across dozens of Siemens industrial networking, communications, and automation products; Siemens has published ProductCERT guidance and fixes for many...
