Echo: openssl-1.0.1g: security update to 1.0.1g+e1

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 478551

Description

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

 - The PKCS#7 implementation in OpenSSL before 0.9.8zf, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0r, 1.0.1 before 1.0.1m, and 1.0.2
 before 1.0.2a does not properly handle a lack of outer ContentInfo, which allows attackers to cause a
 denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) by leveraging an application that
 processes arbitrary PKCS#7 data and providing malformed data with ASN.1 encoding, related to
 crypto/pkcs7/pk7_doit.c and crypto/pkcs7/pk7_lib.c. (CVE-2015-0289)
