This update for openssl-1_1 to 1.1.0i fixes the following issues: These security issues were fixed: - CVE-2018-0732: During key agreement in a TLS handshake using a DH(E) based ciphersuite a malicious server could have sent a very large prime value to the client. This caused the client to spend an unreasonably long period of time generating a key for this prime resulting in a hang until the client has finished. This could be exploited in a Denial Of Service attack (bsc#1097158) - Make problematic ECDSA sign addition length-invariant - Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel attacks These non-security issues were fixed: - When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
