| EnGarde Secure Linux Security Advisory May 02, 2001 |
| http://www.engardelinux.org/ ESA-20010426-01 |
| |
| Package: openssl |
| Summary: There are four potential vulnerabilities in openssl. |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
EnGarde Secure Linux is a secure distribution of Linux that
features improved access control, host and network intrusion
detection, Web based secure remote management, complete e-commerce
using AllCommerce, and integrated open source security tools.
OVERVIEW
- --------
There are four potential vulnerabilities in the version of openssl which
shipped with EnGarde Secure Linux version 1.0.1.
DETAIL
- ------
There were four security fixes introduced into openssl 0.9.6a. However,
this release also broke binary compatibility with older versions of
openssl. Thanks to Nalin Dahyabhai, these changes have been backported
into openssl 0.9.6. This alleviates having to release updated packages
for all of the programs that depend on openssl, such as openssh.
The security-related changes are (from the 0.9.6a announcement):
o Security fix: change behavior of OpenSSL to avoid using environment
variables when running as root.
o Security fix: check the result of RSA-CRT to reduce the possibility
of deducing the private key from an incorrectly calculated
signature.
o Security fix: prevent Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
o Security fix: Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master
secret in DH ciphersuites.
SOLUTION
- --------
All users running 'openssl' should upgrade to the most recent version,
as outlined in this advisory. All updates can be found at:
ftp://ftp.engardelinux.org/pub/engarde/stable/updates/
http://ftp.engardelinux.org/pub/engarde/stable/updates/
To install the updated package, execute the command:
rpm -Uvh <filename>
To verify the signature of the updated packages, execute the
command:
rpm -Kv <filename>
