CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT 
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

PACKAGE   : openssl
SUMMARY   : Several vulnerabilities
DATE      : 2002-07-31 11:54:00
ID        : CLA-2002:513

RELEASES  : 6.0, 7.0, 8

DESCRIPTION
 OpenSSL implements the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport
 Layer Security (TLS v1) protocols as well as full-strength general
 purpose cryptography functions. It's used (as a library) by several
 projects, like Apache, OpenSSH, Bind, OpenLDAP and many others
 clients and servers programs.
 
 While conducting a security review of OpenSSL under the DARPA CHATS
 program[1], A.L Digital and The Bunker found some buffer overflow
 vulnerabilities in OpenSSL prior to (and including) versions 0.9.6e
 and 0.9.7-beta2 (development).
 
 Neophasis consultants indenpendently discovered one of these buffer
 overflows and demonstrated that it was exploitable, although the
 exploit is not released at this time.
 
 The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
 assigned the names CAN-2002-0655, CAN-2002-0656 and CAN-2002-0657 to
 these issues.
 
 Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il> and James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>
 independently found another vulnerability which affects the ASN.1
 parser.
 
 This update fix these vulnerabilites and also adds various sanity
 checks to avoid potential buffer overflows.
 
 A complete advisory provided by the OpenSSL team is available[2] in
 their website.


SOLUTION
 All openssl users should upgrade.
 
 Please notice that in order to complete the upgrade process, you must
 restart all running aplications that are linked to openssl libraries
 after the new packages are installed. You can see a list of such
 applications using the lsof utility, as seen below:
 
 # lsof | egrep '(libcrypto|libssl)'
 
 Services (like apache and openssh daemons) can be restarted using the
 "service" command. For example:
 
 # service httpd restart
 # service openssh restart

ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS
 Users of Conectiva Linux version 6.0 or higher may use apt to perform 
 upgrades of RPM packages:
 - add the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list if it is not there yet
   (you may also use linuxconf to do this):

 rpm [cncbr] ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br 6.0/conectiva updates

(replace 6.0 with the correct version number if you are not running
CL6.0)

 - run:                 apt-get update
 - after that, execute: apt-get upgrade
