               Fedora Legacy Update Advisory

Synopsis:          Updated OpenSSL resolves security vulnerability
Advisory ID:       FLSA:1395
Issue date:        2004-05-08
Product:           Red Hat Linux
Keywords:          Security
Cross references:  https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1395
CVE Names:         CAN-2003-0851 CAN-2004-0081
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------


- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Topic:

Updated OpenSSL packages that fix remote denial of service vulnerabilities 
are now available.

2. Relevent releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 7.2 - i386 i686
Red Hat Linux 7.3 - i386 i686
Red Hat Linux 8.0 - i386 i686

3. Problem description:

OpenSSL is a toolkit that implements Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and 
Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) protocols as well as a full-strength 
general purpose cryptography library.

Testing performed by the OpenSSL group using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool 
uncovered a bug in older versions of OpenSSL 0.9.6 prior to 0.9.6d that 
can lead to a denial of service attack (infinite loop).  The Common 
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the 
name CAN-2004-0081 to this issue.

Testing performed by Novell using a test suite provided by NISCC uncovered 
an issue in the ASN.1 parser in versions of OpenSSL 0.9.6 prior to 0.9.6l 
which could cause large recursion and possibly lead to a denial of service 
attack if used where stack space is limited.  The Common Vulnerabilities 
and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2003-0851 
to this issue.

These updated packages contain patches provided by the OpenSSL group that 
protect against these issues.

NOTE: Because server applications are affected by this issue, users are 
advised to either restart all services using OpenSSL functionality or 
restart their system after installing these updated packages.

Fedora Legacy would like to thank Michal Jaegermann for bringing this issue 
to our attention.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade.  Only those 
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated.  Those RPMs which are 
not installed but included in the list will not be updated.  Note that you 
can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains 
the desired RPMs.

Please note that this update is also available via yum and apt.  Many 
people find this an easier way to apply updates.  To use yum issue:

yum update

or to use apt:

apt-get update; apt-get upgrade

This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate 
RPMs being upgraded on your system.  This assumes that you have yum or 
apt-get configured for obtaining Fedora Legacy content. Please visit 
http://www.fedoralegacy.org/docs for directions on how to configure yum 
and apt-get.

These packages are GPG signed by Fedora Legacy for security.  Our key is
available from http://www.fedoralegacy.org/about/security.php

You can verify each package with the following command:

    rpm --checksig -v <filename>

If you only wish to verify that each package has not been corrupted or
tampered with, examine only the sha1sum with the following command:

    sha1sum <filename>
