Red Hat Security Advisory

 

Synopsis: Moderate: openssl security and bug fix update

Advisory ID: RHSA-2012:0699-01

Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2012-0699.html

Issue date: 2012-05-29

CVE Names: CVE-2012-2333

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

 

1. Summary:

 

Updated openssl packages that fix one security issue 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. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score,

which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in

the References section.

 

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

 

RHEL Desktop Workstation (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64

Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) - i386, ia64, ppc, s390x, x86_64

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.

 

An integer underflow flaw, leading to a buffer over-read, was found in the

way OpenSSL handled DTLS (Datagram Transport Layer Security) application

data record lengths when using a block cipher in CBC (cipher-block

chaining) mode. A malicious DTLS client or server could use this flaw to

crash its DTLS connection peer. (CVE-2012-2333)

 

Red Hat would like to thank the OpenSSL project for reporting this issue.

Upstream acknowledges Codenomicon as the original reporter.

 

On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, this update also fixes an uninitialized

variable use bug, introduced by the fix for CVE-2012-0884 (released via

RHSA-2012:0426). This bug could possibly cause an attempt to create an

encrypted message in the CMS (Cryptographic Message Syntax) format to fail.

 

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

backported patch 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/):
