Synopsis:          Important: gnutls security update
Advisory ID:       SLSA-2014:0246-1
Issue Date:        2014-03-03
CVE Numbers:       CVE-2014-0092
--

It was discovered that GnuTLS did not correctly handle certain errors that
could occur during the verification of an X.509 certificate, causing it to
incorrectly report a successful verification. An attacker could use this
flaw to create a specially crafted certificate that could be accepted by
GnuTLS as valid for a site chosen by the attacker. (CVE-2014-0092)

For the update to take effect, all applications linked to the GnuTLS
library must be restarted.
