From b8d243956296458d1782af0d6e7ecfe6deae038a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matt Caswell Date: Sat, 10 Sep 2016 21:24:40 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Fix a hang with SSL_peek() If while calling SSL_peek() we read an empty record then we go into an infinite loop, continually trying to read data from the empty record and never making any progress. This could be exploited by a malicious peer in a Denial Of Service attack.
