Background ========= OpenSSL is an Open Source toolkit implementing the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) as well as a general purpose cryptography library. Affected packages ================ ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 dev-libs/openssl < 0.9.8l-r2 > = 0.9.8l-r2 Description ========== Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in OpenSSL: * Marsh Ray of PhoneFactor and Martin Rex of SAP independently reported that the TLS protocol does not properly handle session renegotiation requests (CVE-2009-3555). * The MD2 hash algorithm is no longer considered to be cryptographically strong, as demonstrated by Dan Kaminsky. Certificates using this algorithm are no longer accepted (CVE-2009-2409). * Daniel Mentz and Robin Seggelmann reported the following vulnerabilities related to DTLS: A use-after-free flaw (CVE-2009-1379) and a NULL pointer dereference (CVE-2009-1387) in the dtls1_retrieve_buffered_fragment() function in src/d1_both.c, multiple memory leaks in the dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() function in src/d1_both.c (CVE-2009-1378), and a processing error related to a large amount of DTLS records with a future epoch in the dtls1_buffer_record() function in ssl/d1_pkt.c (CVE-2009-1377). Impact ===== A remote unauthenticated attacker, acting as a Man in the Middle, could inject arbitrary plain text into a TLS session, possibly leading to the ability to send requests as if authenticated as the victim. A remote attacker could furthermore send specially crafted DTLS packages to a service using OpenSSL for DTLS support, possibly resulting in a Denial of Service. Also, a remote attacker might be able to create rouge certificates, facilitated by a MD2 collision. NOTE: The amount of computation needed for this attack is still very large. Workaround ========= There is no known workaround at this time. Resolution ========= All OpenSSL users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "> =dev-libs/openssl-0.9.8l-r2" References ========= [ 1 ] CVE-2009-1377 https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2009-1377 [ 2 ] CVE-2009-1378 https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2009-1378 [ 3 ] CVE-2009-1379 https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2009-1379 [ 4 ] CVE-2009-1387 https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2009-1387 [ 5 ] CVE-2009-2409 https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2009-2409 [ 6 ] CVE-2009-3555 https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2009-3555 Availability =========== This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/200912-01 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. Any security concerns should be addressedto
