- SECURITY Fix: Dr. S. N. Henson has discovered vulnerabilities in
OpenSSL which could be exploited by attackers to cause denial of
service.
- During the parsing of certain invalid ASN.1 structures an error
condition is mishandled. This can result in an infinite loop which
consumes system memory.
- Certain types of public key can take disproportionate amounts of
time to process. This could be used by an attacker in a denial of
service attack.
- Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry of the Google Security Team has
discovered the following two vulnerabilities in OpenSSL :
- Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() utility function
which could allow an attacker to send a list of ciphers to an
application that uses it and overrun a buffer.
- A flaw in the SSLv2 client code was discovered. When a client
application used OpenSSL to create an SSLv2 connection to a
malicious server, that server could cause the client to crash.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the names CVE-2006-2937, CVE-2006-2940, CVE-2006-3738
and CVE-2006-4343 to these issues.
Wed Sep 6 14:00:00 2006 Bipin S 0.9.7e-7tr
- New Upstream.
- SECURITY FIX: A vulnerability has been identified which could be exploited
by attackers to bypass security restrictions. This flaw is due to an error
when handling and verifying RSA keys with exponent 3, which could be
exploited by attackers to forge PKCS #1 v1.5 signatures and bypass
security verifications.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the name CVE-2006-4339.
Wed Oct 12 14:00:00 2005 Ajith Thampi 0.9.7e-6tr
- SECURITY Fix: Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
(part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the countermeasure
against man-in-the-middle protocol-version rollback in the SSL 2.0 server
implementation, which is a bad idea.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the name CVE-2005-2969
Thu Jun 9 14:00:00 2005 Syed Shabir Zakiullah 0.9.7e-5tr
- Security Fix: Colin Percival reported a cache timing attack that could be used to
allow a malicious local user to gain portions of cryptographic keys. The OpenSSL
library has been patched to add a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation as
default for RSA, DSA, and DH private key operations. The patch was designed to
mitigate cache timing and possibly related attacks.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the name CAN-2005-0109 to this issue.
