Synopsis: Important: openssl security update Advisory ID: SLSA-2016:0301-1 Issue Date: 2016-03-01 CVE Numbers: CVE-2015-3197 CVE-2016-0800 CVE-2016-0705 CVE-2016-0702 CVE-2016-0797 -- A padding oracle flaw was found in the Secure Sockets Layer version 2.0 (SSLv2) protocol. An attacker can potentially use this flaw to decrypt RSA-encrypted cipher text from a connection using a newer SSL/TLS protocol version, allowing them to decrypt such connections. This cross-protocol attack is publicly referred to as DROWN. (CVE-2016-0800) A flaw was found in the way malicious SSLv2 clients could negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on the server. This could result in weak SSLv2 ciphers being used for SSLv2 connections, making them vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks. (CVE-2015-3197) A side-channel attack was found that makes use of cache-bank conflicts on the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture. An attacker who has the ability to control code in a thread running on the same hyper-threaded core as the victim's thread that is performing decryption, could use this flaw to recover RSA private keys. (CVE-2016-0702) A double-free flaw was found in the way OpenSSL parsed certain malformed DSA (Digital Signature Algorithm) private keys. An attacker could create specially crafted DSA private keys that, when processed by an application compiled against OpenSSL, could cause the application to crash. (CVE-2016-0705) An integer overflow flaw, leading to a NULL pointer dereference or a heap- based memory corruption, was found in the way some BIGNUM functions of OpenSSL were implemented. Applications that use these functions with large untrusted input could crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-0797) For the update to take effect, all services linked to the OpenSSL library must be restarted, or the system rebooted. -- SL6 x86_64 openssl-1.0.1e-42.el6_7.4.i686.rpm openssl-1.0.1e-42.el6_7.4.x86_64.rpm openssl-debuginfo-1.0.1e-42.el6_7.4.i686.rpm openssl-debuginfo-1.0.1e-42.el6_7.4.x86_64.rpm openssl-devel-1.0.1e-42.el6_7.4.i686.rpm openssl-devel-1.0.1e-42.el6_7.4.x86_64.rpm openssl-perl-1.0.1e-42.el6_7.4.x86_64.rpm openssl-static-1.0.1e-42.el6_7.4.x86_64.rpm i386 openssl-1.0.1e-42.el6_7.4.i686.rpm openssl-debuginfo-1.0.1e-42.el6_7.4.i686.rpm openssl-devel-1.0.1e-42.el6_7.4.i686.rpm openssl-perl-1.0.1e-42.el6_7.4.i686.rpm openssl-static-1.0.1e-42.el6_7.4.i686.rpm SL7 x86_64 openssl-1.0.1e-51.el7_2.4.x86_64.rpm openssl-debuginfo-1.0.1e-51.el7_2.4.i686.rpm openssl-debuginfo-1.0.1e-51.el7_2.4.x86_64.rpm openssl-libs-1.0.1e-51.el7_2.4.i686.rpm openssl-libs-1.0.1e-51.el7_2.4.x86_64.rpm openssl-devel-1.0.1e-51.el7_2.4.i686.rpm openssl-devel-1.0.1e-51.el7_2.4.x86_64.rpm openssl-perl-1.0.1e-51.el7_2.4.x86_64.rpm openssl-static-1.0.1e-51.el7_2.4.i686.rpm openssl-static-1.0.1e-51.el7_2.4.x86_64.rpm - Scientific Linux Development Team
