Trustix Secure Linux Security Advisory #2001-0012
Package name: OpenSSL
Date: 2001-07-11
Affected versions: TSL 1.01, 1.1, 1.2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Problem description:
From the OpenSSL Advisory:
The pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) in SSLeay/OpenSSL versions
up to 0.9.6a is weakened by a design error. Knowing the output of
specific PRNG requests (including a number of consecutive very short
PRNG requests) would allow an attacker to determine the PRNG's
internal state and thus to predict future PRNG output.
Action:
We recommend that all systems with this package installed are upgraded.
Location:
All TSL updates are available from
<URI:http://www.trustix.net/pub/Trustix/updates/>
<URI:ftp://ftp.trustix.net/pub/Trustix/updates/>
Automatic updates:
Users of the SWUP tool, can enjoy having updates automatically
installed using 'swup --upgrade'.
Note that kernel packages are not normally fit to be upgraded this way
and therefore excluded in the default configuration.
Get SWUP from:
<URI:ftp://ftp.trustix.net/pub/Trustix/software/swup/>
