OVERVIEW

        Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in McAfee Data Exchange 
        Layer (DXL) Broker Platform in versions prior to 4.1.2 
        Hotfix 1 (HF1). [1]


IMPACT

        Details of the vulnerabilities can be found below:
        
        "CVE-2018-5391
        The Linux kernel, versions 3.9+, is vulnerable to a denial-of-service
        attack with low rates of specially modified packets targeting IP fragment
        re-assembly. An attacker may cause a denial of service condition by sending
        specially crafted IP fragments. Various vulnerabilities in IP fragmentation
        have been discovered and fixed over the years. The current vulnerability
        (CVE-2018-5391) became exploitable in the Linux kernel with the increase of
        the IP fragment reassembly queue size.
        https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-5391
        http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2018-5391
         
        CVE-2018-15473
        OpenSSH through 7.7 is prone to a user enumeration vulnerability due to not
        delaying bailout for an invalid authenticating user until after the packet
        containing the request has been fully parsed, related to auth2-gss.c,
        auth2-hostbased.c, and auth2-pubkey.c.
        https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-15473
        http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2018-15473
         
        CVE-2018-0737
        The OpenSSL RSA Key generation algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to
        a cache timing side channel attack. An attacker with sufficient access to
        mount cache timing attacks during the RSA key generation process could
        recover the private key. Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.0i-dev (Affected
        1.1.0-1.1.0h). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2p-dev (Affected 1.0.2b-1.0.2o).
