--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2005-1042 2005-10-31 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 3 Name : openssl096b Version : 0.9.6b Release : 21.42 Summary : The OpenSSL toolkit. Description : The OpenSSL toolkit provides support for secure communications between machines. OpenSSL includes a certificate management tool and shared libraries which provide various cryptographic algorithms and protocols. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: CAN-2004-0079, a remote crasher, was originally believed to only affect versions of OpenSSL after 0.9.6b verified with Codenomicon test suite (see pkt539.c). However we've had a customer report that this affects 0.9.6b via a different reproducer. This therefore affects the openssl096b compat packages as shipped with FC-3. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Mon Oct 31 2005 Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> 0.9.6b-21.42 - fix CVE-2004-0079 - prevent a null pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() - add security fix for CVE-2003-0851 to sync with 2.1AS --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/u... 8d68e4b430aa7c5ca067c12866ae694e SRPMS/openssl096b-0.9.6b-21.42.src.rpm 54a9e78a2fdd625b9dc9121e09eb4398 x86_64/openssl096b-0.9.6b-21.42.x86_64.rpm c5c6174e23eba8d038889d08f49231b8 x86_64/debug/openssl096b-debuginfo-0.9.6b-21.42.x86_64.rpm 56b63fc150d0c099b2e4f0950e21005b x86_64/openssl096b-0.9.6b-21.42.i386.rpm 56b63fc150d0c099b2e4f0950e21005b i386/openssl096b-0.9.6b-21.42.i386.rpm 93195495585c7e9789041c75b1ed5380 i386/debug/openssl096b-debuginfo-0.9.6b-21.42.i386.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- fedora-announce-list mailing list fedora-announce-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-announce-list
