Gentoo: 200602-08 High Severity: libtasn1 DER Decoding Flaw

A flaw in the parsing of Distinguished Encoding Rules (DER) has been discovered in libtasn1, potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.

Background ========= Libtasn1 is a library used to parse ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One) objects, and perform DER (Distinguished Encoding Rules) decoding. Libtasn1 is included with the GNU TLS library, which is used by applications to provide a cryptographically secure communications channel. Affected packages ================ ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 dev-libs/libtasn1 < 0.2.18 > = 0.2.18 2 net-libs/gnutls < 1.2.10 > = 1.2.10 ------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 affected packages on all of their supported architectures. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Description ========== Evgeny Legerov has reported a flaw in the DER decoding routines provided by libtasn1, which could cause an out of bounds access to occur. Impact ===== A remote attacker could cause an applicationusing libtasn1 to crash and potentially execute arbitrary code by sending specially crafted input. Workaround ========= There is no known workaround at this time. Resolution ========= All libtasn1 users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "> =dev-libs/libtasn1-0.2.18" All GNU TLS users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "> =net-libs/gnutls-1.2.10" References ========= [ 1 ] CVE-2006-0645 Availability =========== This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/200602-08 Concerns? ======== Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.
