Advisory PublishedCVSS 7.8/10
Vulnetix · Advisory published March 6, 2015
Some implementations of SSL/TLS accept export-grade (512-bit or smaller) RSA keys even when not specifically requesting export grade ciphers. An attacker able to act as a Man-in-The-Middle (MiTM) could factor weak temporary RSA keys, obtain session keys, and decrypt SSL/TLS trafflc. This issue has been dubbed the "FREAK" (Factoring Attack on RSA-EXPORT Keys) attack.
