MiracleLinux 4 : openssl-1.0.0-10.AXS4 (AXSA:2011-715:01)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 283974

Synopsis

The remote MiracleLinux host is missing a security update.

Description

The remote MiracleLinux 4 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the AXSA:2011-715:01 advisory.

 The OpenSSL toolkit provides support for secure communications between machines. OpenSSL includes a certificate management tool and shared libraries which provide various cryptographic algorithms and protocols.
 Security issues fixed with this release:
 CVE-2011-0014 ssl/t1_lib.c in OpenSSL 0.9.8h through 0.9.8q and 1.0.0 through 1.0.0c allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash), and possibly obtain sensitive information in applications that use OpenSSL, via a malformed ClientHello handshake message that triggers an out-of-bounds memory access, aka OCSP stapling vulnerability.
 Fixed bugs:
 - fix OCSP stapling vulnerability
 - correct the README.FIPS document
 - add -x931 parameter to openssl genrsa command to use the ANSI X9.31 key generation method
 - use FIPS-186-3 method for DSA parameter generation
 - add OPENSSL_FIPS_NON_APPROVED_MD5_ALLOW environment variable to allow using MD5 when the system is in the maintenance state even if the /proc fips flag is on
 - make openssl pkcs12 command work by default in the FIPS mode
 - listen on ipv6 wildcard in s_server so we accept connections from both ipv4 and ipv6
 - fix openssl speed command so it can be used in the FIPS mode with FIPS allowed ciphers

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected openssl and / or openssl-devel packages.
