-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA 393-1 security@debian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Michael Stone October 1, 2003 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : openssl Vulnerability : denial of service Problem-Type : remote Debian-specific: no CVE Ids : CAN-2003-0543 CAN-2003-0544 Dr. Stephen Henson (steve@openssl.org), using a test suite provided by NISCC (www.niscc.gov.uk), discovered a number of errors in the OpenSSL ASN1 code. Combined with an error that causes the OpenSSL code to parse client certificates even when it should not, these errors can cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on a system using the OpenSSL code, depending on how that code is used. For example, even though apache-ssl and ssh link to OpenSSL libraries, they should not be affected by this vulnerability. However, other SSL-enabled applications may be vulnerable and an OpenSSL upgrade is recommended. For the current stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 0.9.6c-2.woody.4 For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 0.9.7c-1 We recommend that you update your openssl package. Note that you will need to restart services which use the libssl library for this update to take effect. Upgrade Instructions - -------------------- wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file. If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for sources.list as given below: apt-get update will update the internal database apt-get upgrade will install corrected packages You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the footer to the proper configuration.
