CVE-2015-7940
Estado: ModificadaMedia (5)—
The Bouncy Castle Java library before 1.51 does not validate a point is withing the elliptic curve, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain private keys via a series of crafted elliptic curve Diffie Hellman (ECDH) key exchanges, aka an "invalid curve attack."
CVSS
- Versión: 2.0
- Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
- Puntuación base: 5
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 4.82%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 92
- Fecha de la puntuación: 5/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
