OpenSSL 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a TLS handshake that omits the Server Key Exchange message and uses particular cipher suites, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference.
The product dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid but is NULL.
