Alpine: openssl: security update to 1.0.2i-r0

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 406080

Description

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

- The DES and Triple DES ciphers, as used in the TLS, SSH, and IPSec protocols and other protocols and
products, have a birthday bound of approximately four billion blocks, which makes it easier for remote
attackers to obtain cleartext data via a birthday attack against a long-duration encrypted session, as
demonstrated by an HTTPS session using Triple DES in CBC mode, aka a "Sweet32" attack. (CVE-2016-2183)

- Multiple memory leaks in t1_lib.c in OpenSSL before 1.0.1u, 1.0.2 before 1.0.2i, and 1.1.0 before 1.1.0a
allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via large OCSP Status Request
extensions. (CVE-2016-6304)

- The certificate parser in OpenSSL before 1.0.1u and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2i might allow remote attackers to
cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via crafted certificate operations, related to s3_clnt.c
and s3_srvr.c. (CVE-2016-6306)
