An update that solves 7 vulnerabilities and has two fixes

is now available.

 

Description:

 

 

OpenSSL 0.9.8k was updated to fix several security issues.

 

* CVE-2015-4000: The Logjam Attack ( weakdh.org ) has been addressed

by rejecting connections with DH parameters shorter than 1024 bits.

We now also generate 2048-bit DH parameters by default.

* CVE-2015-1788: Malformed ECParameters could cause an infinite loop.

* CVE-2015-1789: An out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time was fixed.

* CVE-2015-1790: A PKCS7 decoder crash with missing EnvelopedContent

was fixed.

* CVE-2015-1792: A CMS verification infinite loop when using an

unknown hash function was fixed.

* CVE-2015-1791: Fixed a race condition in NewSessionTicket creation.

* CVE-2015-3216: Fixed a potential crash in ssleay_rand_bytes due to

locking regression.

* fixed a timing side channel in RSA decryption (bnc#929678)

 

Additional changes:

 

* In the default SSL cipher string EXPORT ciphers are now disabled.

This will only get active if applications get rebuilt and actually

use this string. (bnc#931698)

* Added the ECC ciphersuites to the DEFAULT cipher class (bnc#879179)
