  <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>
  </background>
  <description>
    <p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in OpenSSL:</p>
    
    <ul>
      <li>OpenSSL incorrectly handles memory in the TLS heartbeat extension,
        leading to information disclosure of 64kb per request, possibly
        including private keys (“Heartbleed bug”, OpenSSL 1.0.1 only,
        CVE-2014-0160).
      </li>
      <li>The Montgomery ladder implementation of OpenSSL improperly handles
        swap operations (CVE-2014-0076).
      </li>
    </ul>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>A remote attacker could exploit these issues to disclose information,
      including private keys or other sensitive information, or perform
      side-channel attacks to obtain ECDSA nonces.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>Disabling the tls-heartbeat USE flag (enabled by default) provides a
      workaround for the CVE-2014-0160 issue.
    </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-1.0.1g"
    </code>
    
    <p>Note: All services using OpenSSL to provide TLS connections have to be
      restarted for the update to take effect. Utilities like
      app-admin/lib_users can aid in identifying programs using OpenSSL.
    </p>
    
    <p>As private keys may have been compromised using the Heartbleed attack,
      it is recommended to regenerate them.
    </p>
