Synopsis:	Important: openssl security update
Issue date:	2010-11-16
CVE Names:	CVE-2010-3864

A race condition flaw has been found in the OpenSSL TLS server extension
parsing code, which could affect some multithreaded OpenSSL 
applications. Under certain specific conditions, it may be possible for 
a remote attacker to trigger this race condition and cause such an 
application to crash, or possibly execute arbitrary code with the 
permissions of the application. (CVE-2010-3864)

Note that this issue does not affect the Apache HTTP Server.

For the update to take effect, all services linked to the OpenSSL 
library must be restarted, or the system rebooted.
