Desktop Central is not vulnerable to CVE 2020-1968

Is Desktop Central vulnerable to this CVE?

No, Desktop Central is not vulnerable to CVE-2020-1968  vulnerability. Read the document fully for further details.

What was the issue?

The Raccoon attack exploits a flaw in the TLS specification which can lead to an attacker being able to compute the pre-master secret in connections which have used a Diffie-Hellman (DH) based ciphersuite. In such a case this would result in the attacker being able to eavesdrop on all encrypted communications sent over that TLS connection. The attack can only be exploited if an implementation re-uses a DH secret across multiple TLS connections and affects only OpenSSL 1.0.2-OpenSLL 1.0.2v.

Why Desktop Central is not vulnerable to this CVE?

CVE-2020-1968 will not affect Desktop Central as Desktop Central supports OpenSSL 1.1.1 and onwards, which are not affected by this CVE.

Future plan for Upgrade

Although Desktop Central is not vulnerable to this CVE, we'll be upgrading to the latest OpenSSL version during our regular third-party components upgrade cycle.
