Benjamin Coverston created CASSANDRA-8977:
---------------------------------------------

             Summary: Potential DOS Exposure from Netty
                 Key: CASSANDRA-8977
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8977
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Benjamin Coverston


CVE-2014-3488 : The SslHandler in Netty before 3.9.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and CPU consumption) via a crafted SSLv2Hello message.

2.0 currently uses Netty 3.6.6 

Upgrading to 3.9.2+ will fix this issue, and patch a few other known vulnerabilities that we do not currently expose.
