Heads-up: new OpenSSL build changes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Dear colleagues,

I've just pushed a new OpenSSL build to rawhide.
The change compared to the previous one is incorporating the patch from
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/13817. Some more details can be found here:
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/13421

Citing the change description,

We added and enabled by default implicit rejection in RSA PKCS#1 v1.5
decryption as a protection against Bleichenbacher-like attacks.
The RSA decryption API will now return a randomly generated deterministic
message instead of an error in case it detects an error when checking
padding during PKCS#1 v1.5 decryption. This is a general protection against
issues like CVE-2020-25659 and CVE-2020-25657. This protection can be
disabled by calling
`EVP_PKEY_CTX_ctrl_str(ctx, "rsa_pkcs1_implicit_rejection". "0")`
in the RSA decryption context.
