Echo: openssl: security update to 3.5.4

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 457939

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Issue summary: An application trying to decrypt CMS messages encrypted using password based encryption can
 trigger an out-of-bounds read and write. Impact summary: This out-of-bounds read may trigger a crash which
 leads to Denial of Service for an application. The out-of-bounds write can cause a memory corruption which
 can have various consequences including a Denial of Service or Execution of attacker-supplied code.
 Although the consequences of a successful exploit of this vulnerability could be severe, the probability
 that the attacker would be able to perform it is low. Besides, password based (PWRI) encryption support in
 CMS messages is very rarely used. For that reason the issue was assessed as Moderate severity according to
 our Security Policy. The FIPS modules in 3.5, 3.4, 3.3, 3.2, 3.1 and 3.0 are not affected by this issue,
 as the CMS implementation is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary. (CVE-2025-9230)

Solution

Update the openssl library and its related packages to version 3.5.4 or later.
