Description

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

 - AES OCB mode for 32-bit x86 platforms using the AES-NI assembly optimised implementation will not encrypt
 the entirety of the data under some circumstances. This could reveal sixteen bytes of data that was
 preexisting in the memory that wasn't written. In the special case of "in place" encryption, sixteen bytes
 of the plaintext would be revealed. Since OpenSSL does not support OCB based cipher suites for TLS and
 DTLS, they are both unaffected. Fixed in OpenSSL 3.0.5 (Affected 3.0.0-3.0.4). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.1q
 (Affected 1.1.1-1.1.1p). (CVE-2022-2097)

Solution

Update the openssl-1.1.1c library and its related packages to version 1.1.1c+e1 or later.
