Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

Simon Butcher reports :

- Defend against Bellcore glitch attacks by verifying the results of RSA private key operations.

- Fix implementation of the truncated HMAC extension. The previous implementation allowed an offline 2^80 brute-force attack on the HMAC key of a single, uninterrupted connection (with no resumption of the session).

- Reject CRLs containing unsupported critical extensions. Found by Falko Strenzke and Evangelos Karatsiolis.

- Fix a buffer overread in ssl_parse_server_key_exchange() that could cause a crash on invalid input.

- Fix a buffer overread in ssl_parse_server_psk_hint() that could cause a crash on invalid input.

Solution
