Don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any questions!

LibreSSL is vulnerable to CVE-2014-3510. From the CVE:

The ssl3_send_client_key_exchange function in s3_clnt.c in OpenSSL 0.9.8 before 
0.9.8zb, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0n, and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1i allows remote DTLS 
servers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and client 
application crash) via a crafted handshake message in conjunction with a (1) 
anonymous DH or (2) anonymous ECDH ciphersuite.

https://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git;a=blobdiff;f=ssl/s3_clnt.c;h=0a006
a75342893fd4f2fdd30f930ec220b7694fa;hp=9a94de00d8492a292995a90b3f0c45b1fe85e087;
hb=17160033765480453be0a41335fa6b833691c049;hpb=280b1f1ad12131defcd986676a8fc971
7aaa601b

Using specific anonymous cipher suites will result in a null pointer 
dereference in d1_clnt.c on line 988 and 1072 in function 
dtls1_send_client_key_exchange.

988                             if (s->session->sess_cert->peer_dh_tmp != NULL)

(gdb) p s->session->sess_cert
$1 = (struct sess_cert_st *) 0x0

We recommend to check if sess_cert is non NULL.

Cheers
Felix
