=====================================================================

 

1. Summary:

 

Updated openssl packages that fix two security issues and one bug are now

available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6.

 

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate

security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores,

which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability

from the CVE links in the References section.

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 NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way OpenSSL parsed

Secure/Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (S/MIME) messages. An attacker

could use this flaw to crash an application that uses OpenSSL to decrypt or

verify S/MIME messages. (CVE-2012-1165)

 

A flaw was found in the PKCS#7 and Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS)

implementations in OpenSSL. An attacker could possibly use this flaw to

perform a Bleichenbacher attack to decrypt an encrypted CMS, PKCS#7, or

S/MIME message by sending a large number of chosen ciphertext messages to

a service using OpenSSL and measuring error response times. (CVE-2012-0884)

 

This update also fixes a regression caused by the fix for CVE-2011-4619,

released via RHSA-2012:0060 and RHSA-2012:0059, which caused Server Gated

Cryptography (SGC) handshakes to fail.

 

All OpenSSL users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain

backported patches to resolve 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.

 

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to

use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at

https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/articles/11258

 

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

 

802489 - CVE-2012-1165 openssl: mime_param_cmp NULL dereference crash

802725 - CVE-2012-0884 openssl: CMS and PKCS#7 Bleichenbacher attack
