Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2013-12-20 10:29:06 UTC
From ${URL} :

A flaw was reported for OpenSSL 1.0.1e, that can cause application using OpenSSL to crash when using TLS 
version 1.2.  Issue was reported via the following OpenSSL upstream ticket:

http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=3200&user=guest&pass=guest

and also as bug for Apache Traffic Server:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2355

Fix is now committed in upstream git:

http://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git;a=commitdiff;h=ca98926

Related to the above ticket, upstream also added this fix to improve error checks in OpenSSL:

http://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git;a=commitdiff;h=0294b2b


@maintainer(s): after the bump, in case we need to stabilize the package, please let us know if it is ready for the stabilization or not.

CVE-2013-6449 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-6449):
  The ssl_get_algorithm2 function in ssl/s3_lib.c in OpenSSL before 1.0.2
  obtains a certain version number from an incorrect data structure, which
  allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via
  crafted traffic from a TLS 1.2 client.
Comment 3 Yury German Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev 2013-12-28 06:33:28 UTC
Please advise when ready for stabilization.

Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2013-6450 to the following vulnerability:

The DTLS retransmission implementation in OpenSSL through 0.9.8y and 1.x through 1.0.1e does not properly maintain data structures for digest and encryption contexts, which might allow man-in-the-middle attackers to trigger the use of a different context by interfering with packet delivery, related to ssl/d1_both.c and ssl/t1_enc.c.
