Echo: openssl-1.1.1c: security update to 1.1.1c+e1

low Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 478531

Description

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

 - OpenSSL has internal defaults for a directory tree where it can find a configuration file as well as
 certificates used for verification in TLS. This directory is most commonly referred to as OPENSSLDIR, and
 is configurable with the --prefix / --openssldir configuration options. For OpenSSL versions 1.1.0 and
 1.1.1, the mingw configuration targets assume that resulting programs and libraries are installed in a
 Unix-like environment and the default prefix for program installation as well as for OPENSSLDIR should be
 '/usr/local'. However, mingw programs are Windows programs, and as such, find themselves looking at sub-
 directories of 'C:/usr/local', which may be world writable, which enables untrusted users to modify
 OpenSSL's default configuration, insert CA certificates, modify (or even replace) existing engine modules,
 etc. For OpenSSL 1.0.2, '/usr/local/ssl' is used as default for OPENSSLDIR on all Unix and Windows
 targets, including Visual C builds. However, some build instructions for the diverse Windows targets on
 1.0.2 encourage you to specify your own --prefix. OpenSSL versions 1.1.1, 1.1.0 and 1.0.2 are affected by
 this issue. Due to the limited scope of affected deployments this has been assessed as low severity and
 therefore we are not creating new releases at this time. Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.1d (Affected 1.1.1-1.1.1c).
 Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.0l (Affected 1.1.0-1.1.0k). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2t (Affected 1.0.2-1.0.2s).
 (CVE-2019-1552)

Solution

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