An update for openssl is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.7 Extended Update Support.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

OpenSSL is a toolkit that implements the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols, as well as a full-strength general-purpose cryptography library.

Security Fix(es) :

* A flaw was found in the way OpenSSL encoded certain ASN.1 data structures. An attacker could use this flaw to create a specially crafted certificate which, when verified or re-encoded by OpenSSL, could cause it to crash, or execute arbitrary code using the permissions of the user running an application compiled against the OpenSSL library. (CVE-2016-2108)

* Two integer overflow flaws, leading to buffer overflows, were found in the way the EVP_EncodeUpdate() and EVP_EncryptUpdate() functions of OpenSSL parsed very large amounts of input data. A remote attacker could use these flaws to crash an application using OpenSSL or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running that application. (CVE-2016-2105, CVE-2016-2106)

* It was discovered that OpenSSL leaked timing information when decrypting TLS/SSL and DTLS protocol encrypted records when the connection used the AES CBC cipher suite and the server supported AES-NI. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to retrieve plain text from encrypted packets by using a TLS/SSL or DTLS server as a padding oracle. (CVE-2016-2107)

* Several flaws were found in the way BIO_*printf functions were implemented in OpenSSL. Applications which passed large amounts of untrusted data through these functions could crash or potentially execute code with the permissions of the user running such an application. (CVE-2016-0799, CVE-2016-2842)

* A denial of service flaw was found in the way OpenSSL parsed certain ASN.1-encoded data from BIO (OpenSSL's I/O abstraction) inputs. An application using OpenSSL that accepts untrusted ASN.1 BIO input could be forced to allocate an excessive amount of data. (CVE-2016-2109)

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

OpenSSL is a toolkit that implements the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols, as well as a full-strength general-purpose cryptography library.

Security Fix(es) :

* A flaw was found in the way OpenSSL encoded certain ASN.1 data structures. An attacker could use this flaw to create a specially crafted certificate which, when verified or re-encoded by OpenSSL, could cause it to crash, or execute arbitrary code using the permissions of the user running an application compiled against the OpenSSL library. (CVE-2016-2108)

* Two integer overflow flaws, leading to buffer overflows, were found in the way the EVP_EncodeUpdate() and EVP_EncryptUpdate() functions of OpenSSL parsed very large amounts of input data. A remote attacker could use these flaws to crash an application using OpenSSL or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running that application. (CVE-2016-2105, CVE-2016-2106)

* It was discovered that OpenSSL leaked timing information when decrypting TLS/SSL and DTLS protocol encrypted records when the connection used the AES CBC cipher suite and the server supported AES-NI. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to retrieve plain text from encrypted packets by using a TLS/SSL or DTLS server as a padding oracle. (CVE-2016-2107)

* Several flaws were found in the way BIO_*printf functions were implemented in OpenSSL. Applications which passed large amounts of untrusted data through these functions could crash or potentially execute code with the permissions of the user running such an application. (CVE-2016-0799, CVE-2016-2842)

* A denial of service flaw was found in the way OpenSSL parsed certain ASN.1-encoded data from BIO (OpenSSL's I/O abstraction) inputs. An application using OpenSSL that accepts untrusted ASN.1 BIO input could be forced to allocate an excessive amount of data. (CVE-2016-2109)

The version of OpenSSL installed on the remote AIX host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A key disclosure vulnerability exists due to improper     handling of cache-bank conflicts on the Intel     Sandy-bridge microarchitecture. An attacker can exploit     this to gain access to RSA key information.
    (CVE-2016-0702)

  - A double-free error exists due to improper validation of     user-supplied input when parsing malformed DSA private     keys. A remote attacker can exploit this to corrupt     memory, resulting in a denial of service condition or     the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-0705)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw exists in the     BN_hex2bn() and BN_dec2bn() functions. A remote attacker     can exploit this to trigger a heap corruption, resulting     in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-0797)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to improper     handling of invalid usernames. A remote attacker can     exploit this, via a specially crafted username, to leak     300 bytes of memory per connection, exhausting available     memory resources. (CVE-2016-0798)

  - Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow a     remote attacker to cause a denial of service condition     or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-0799)

  - A flaw exists that allows a cross-protocol     Bleichenbacher padding oracle attack known as DROWN     (Decrypting RSA with Obsolete and Weakened eNcryption).
    This vulnerability exists due to a flaw in the Secure     Sockets Layer Version 2 (SSLv2) implementation, and it     allows captured TLS traffic to be decrypted. A     man-in-the-middle attacker can exploit this to decrypt     the TLS connection by utilizing previously captured     traffic and weak cryptography along with a series of     specially crafted connections to an SSLv2 server that     uses the same private key. (CVE-2016-0800)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to improper     verification of memory allocation by the doapr_outch()     function in file crypto/bio/b_print.c. A remote attacker     can exploit this, via a specially crafted string, to     write data out-of-bounds or exhaust memory resources or     possibly have other unspecified impact. (CVE-2016-2842)

A padding oracle flaw was found in the Secure Sockets Layer version 2.0 (SSLv2) protocol. An attacker can potentially use this flaw to decrypt RSA-encrypted cipher text from a connection using a newer SSL/TLS protocol version, allowing them to decrypt such connections.
This cross-protocol attack is publicly referred to as DROWN (CVE-2016-0800). Prior to this advisory, SSLv2 has been disabled by default in OpenSSL on the Amazon Linux AMI. However, application configurations may still re-enable SSLv2.

A flaw was found in the way TLS 1.2 could use the MD5 hash function for signing ServerKeyExchange and Client Authentication packets during a TLS handshake. A man-in-the-middle attacker able to force a TLS connection to use the MD5 hash function could use this flaw to conduct collision attacks to impersonate a TLS server or an authenticated TLS client. (CVE-2015-7575 , Medium)

A flaw was found in the way malicious SSLv2 clients could negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on the server. This could result in weak SSLv2 ciphers being used for SSLv2 connections, making them vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks. (CVE-2015-3197 , Low)

A side-channel attack was found that makes use of cache-bank conflicts on the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture. An attacker who has the ability to control code in a thread running on the same hyper-threaded core as the victim's thread that is performing decryption, could use this flaw to recover RSA private keys. (CVE-2016-0702 , Low)

A double-free flaw was found in the way OpenSSL parsed certain malformed DSA (Digital Signature Algorithm) private keys. An attacker could create specially crafted DSA private keys that, when processed by an application compiled against OpenSSL, could cause the application to crash. (CVE-2016-0705 , Low)

An integer overflow flaw, leading to a NULL pointer dereference or a heap-based memory corruption, was found in the way some BIGNUM functions of OpenSSL were implemented. Applications that use these functions with large untrusted input could crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-0797 , Low)

The fmtstr function in crypto/bio/b_print.c in OpenSSL improperly calculated string lengths, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (overflow and out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long string, as demonstrated by a large amount of ASN.1 data. (CVE-2016-0799 , Low)

The doapr_outch function in crypto/bio/b_print.c in OpenSSL did not verify that a certain memory allocation succeeds, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write or memory consumption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long string, as demonstrated by a large amount of ASN.1 data.
(CVE-2016-2842 , Low)

'(Updated on 2016-04-28: CVE-2016-2842 was fixed as part of this update but was previously not listed in this advisory.)'

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in OpenSSL, a Secure Socket Layer toolkit.

  - CVE-2016-0702     Yuval Yarom from the University of Adelaide and NICTA,     Daniel Genkin from Technion and Tel Aviv University, and     Nadia Heninger from the University of Pennsylvania     discovered a side-channel attack which makes use of     cache-bank conflicts on the Intel Sandy-Bridge     microarchitecture. This could allow local attackers to     recover RSA private keys.

  - CVE-2016-0705     Adam Langley from Google discovered a double free bug     when parsing malformed DSA private keys. This could     allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service or     memory corruption in applications parsing DSA private     keys received from untrusted sources.

  - CVE-2016-0797     Guido Vranken discovered an integer overflow in the     BN_hex2bn and BN_dec2bn functions that can lead to a     NULL pointer dereference and heap corruption. This could     allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service or     memory corruption in applications processing hex or dec     data received from untrusted sources.

  - CVE-2016-0798     Emilia Kasper of the OpenSSL development team     discovered a memory leak in the SRP database lookup     code. To mitigate the memory leak, the seed handling in     SRP_VBASE_get_by_user is now disabled even if the user     has configured a seed. Applications are advised to     migrate to the SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user function.

  - CVE-2016-0799, CVE-2016-2842     Guido Vranken discovered an integer overflow in the     BIO_*printf functions that could lead to an OOB read     when printing very long strings. Additionally the     internal doapr_outch function can attempt to write to an     arbitrary memory location in the event of a memory     allocation failure. These issues will only occur on     platforms where sizeof(size_t) > sizeof(int) like many     64 bit systems. This could allow remote attackers to     cause a denial of service or memory corruption in     applications that pass large amounts of untrusted data     to the BIO_*printf functions.

Additionally the EXPORT and LOW ciphers were disabled since thay could be used as part of the DROWN (CVE-2016-0800 ) and SLOTH (CVE-2015-7575 ) attacks, but note that the oldstable (wheezy) and stable (jessie) distributions are not affected by those attacks since the SSLv2 protocol has already been dropped in the openssl package version 1.0.0c-2.
