  <background>
    <p>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.
    </p>

  <description>
    <p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in OpenSSL:</p>
    
    <ul>
      <li>Timing differences for decryption are exposed by CBC mode encryption
        in OpenSSL’s implementation of DTLS (CVE-2011-4108).
      </li>
      <li>A policy check failure can result in a double-free error when
        X509_V_FLAG_POLICY_CHECK is set (CVE-2011-4109).
      </li>
      <li>Clients and servers using SSL 3.0 handshakes do not clear the block
        cipher padding, allowing a record to contain up to 15 bytes of
        uninitialized memory, which could include sensitive information
        (CVE-2011-4576). 
      </li>
      <li>Assertion errors can occur during the handling of malformed X.509
        certificates when OpenSSL is built with RFC 3779 support
        (CVE-2011-4577).
      </li>
      <li>A resource management error can occur when OpenSSL’s server gated
        cryptography (SGC) does not properly handle handshake restarts
        (CVE-2011-4619).
      </li>
      <li>Invalid parameters in the GOST block cipher are not properly handled
        by the GOST ENGINE(CVE-2012-0027).
      </li>
      <li>An incorrect fix for CVE-2011-4108 creates an unspecified
        vulnerability for DTLS applications using OpenSSL (CVE-2012-0050). 
      </li>
    </ul>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>A remote attacker may be able to cause a Denial of Service or obtain
      sensitive information, including plaintext passwords. 
    </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 "&gt;=dev-libs/openssl-1.0.0g"
    </code>
