21 <title>OpenSSL: Remote execution of arbitrary code</title>
22 <synopsis>
23 OpenSSL contains a vulnerability allowing execution of arbitrary code or a
24 Denial of Service.

39 OpenSSL is an Open Source toolkit implementing the Secure Sockets Layer
40 (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) as well as a general
41 purpose cryptography library.

45 <p>
46 Andy Polyakov reported a vulnerability in the OpenSSL toolkit, that is
47 caused due to an unspecified off-by-one error within the DTLS
48 implementation.
49 </p>
50 </description>
51 <impact type="high">
52 <p>
53 A remote attacker could exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code or
54 cause a Denial of Service. Only clients and servers explicitly using
55 DTLS are affected, systems using SSL and TLS are not.
56 </p>
57 </impact>
58 <workaround>
59 <p>
60 There is no known workaround at this time.
61 </p>
62 </workaround>
63 <resolution>
64 <p>
65 All OpenSSL users should upgrade to the latest version:
66 </p>
67 <code>
68 # emerge --sync
69 # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=dev-libs/openssl-0.9.8f&quot;</code>
70 </resolution>
