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.

<description>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Andy Polyakov reported a vulnerability in the OpenSSL toolkit, that is
|
|
caused due to an unspecified off-by-one error within the DTLS
|
|
implementation.
|
|

|
<impact type="high">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code or
|
|
cause a Denial of Service. Only clients and servers explicitly using
|
|
DTLS are affected, systems using SSL and TLS are not.
|
|
</p>
|

</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All OpenSSL users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-libs/openssl-0.9.8f"</code>
