3. Description:

 

OpenSSL is a toolkit that implements the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3)

and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) protocols, as well as a

full-strength, general purpose cryptography library.

 

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)

 

Note: This issue was addressed by disabling the SSLv2 protocol by default

when using the 'SSLv23' connection methods, and removing support for weak

SSLv2 cipher suites. For more information, refer to the knowledge base

article linked to in the References section.

 

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)

 

Red Hat would like to thank the OpenSSL project for reporting these issues.

Upstream acknowledges Nimrod Aviram and Sebastian Schinzel as the original

reporters.

 

All openssl users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which

contain backported patches to correct these issues. For the update to take

effect, all services linked to the OpenSSL library must be restarted, or

the system rebooted.

 

4. Solution:

 

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata

relevant to your system have been applied.

5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

 

1301846 - CVE-2015-3197 OpenSSL: SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers

1310593 - CVE-2016-0800 SSL/TLS: Cross-protocol attack on TLS using SSLv2 (DROWN)
