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

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 478547

Description

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

 - OpenSSL 1.1.1 introduced a rewritten random number generator (RNG). This was intended to include
 protection in the event of a fork() system call in order to ensure that the parent and child processes did
 not share the same RNG state. However this protection was not being used in the default case. A partial
 mitigation for this issue is that the output from a high precision timer is mixed into the RNG state so
 the likelihood of a parent and child process sharing state is significantly reduced. If an application
 already calls OPENSSL_init_crypto() explicitly using OPENSSL_INIT_ATFORK then this problem does not occur
 at all. Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.1d (Affected 1.1.1-1.1.1c). (CVE-2019-1549)

Solution

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