Subject: [SECURITY] [DSA-393-1] New OpenSSL packages correct denial of service issues

> Package        : openssl
> Vulnerability  : denial of service
> Problem-Type   : remote
> Debian-specific: no
> CVE Ids        : CAN-2003-0543 CAN-2003-0544
>
> Dr. Stephen Henson (steve@...nssl.org), using a test suite provided by
> NISCC (www.niscc.gov.uk), discovered a number of errors in the OpenSSL
> ASN1 code.  Combined with an error that causes the OpenSSL code to parse
> client certificates even when it should not, these errors can cause a
> denial of service (DoS) condition on a system using the OpenSSL code,
> depending on how that code is used. For example, even though apache-ssl
> and ssh link to OpenSSL libraries, they should not be affected by this
> vulnerability. However, other SSL-enabled applications may be
> vulnerable and an OpenSSL upgrade is recommended.
>
> For the current stable distribution (woody) these problems have been
> fixed in version 0.9.6c-2.woody.4
>
> For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in
> version 0.9.7c-1
>
> We recommend that you update your openssl package. Note that you will
> need to restart services which use the libssl library for this update to
> take effect.
