OpenSSL < 0.9.6e / 0.9.7b3 Multiple Remote Vulnerabilities

critical Nessus Plugin ID 11060

Synopsis

The remote service uses a library that is affected by a buffer overflow vulnerability.

Description

The remote service seems to be using a version of OpenSSL that is older than 0.9.6e or 0.9.7-beta3.

Such versions are affected by a buffer overflow that may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the remote host with the privileges of the application itself.

Solution

Upgrade to OpenSSL version 0.9.6e / 0.9.7beta3 or later.
