Alpine: libcrypto3, multiple openssl packages: security update to 1.0.1-r7 (deprecated)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 401100

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- The ssl3_take_mac function in ssl/s3_both.c in OpenSSL 1.0.1 before 1.0.1f allows remote TLS servers to
cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via a crafted Next Protocol
Negotiation record in a TLS handshake. (CVE-2013-4353)

- The ssl_get_algorithm2 function in ssl/s3_lib.c in OpenSSL before 1.0.2 obtains a certain version number
from an incorrect data structure, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon
crash) via crafted traffic from a TLS 1.2 client. (CVE-2013-6449)

- The DTLS retransmission implementation in OpenSSL 1.0.0 before 1.0.0l and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1f does not
properly maintain data structures for digest and encryption contexts, which might allow man-in-the-middle
attackers to trigger the use of a different context and cause a denial of service (application crash) by
interfering with packet delivery, related to ssl/d1_both.c and ssl/t1_enc.c. (CVE-2013-6450)
