Oracle Solaris Third-Party Patch Update : gnutls (multiple_vulnerabilities_in_gnutls)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 80632

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Solaris system is missing a security patch for third-party software.

Description

The remote Solaris system is missing necessary patches to address security updates :

 - The gnutls_x509_dn_oid_name function in lib/x509/common.c in GnuTLS 3.0 before 3.1.20 and 3.2.x before 3.2.10 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via a crafted X.509 certificate, related to a missing LDAP description for an OID when printing the DN. (CVE-2014-3465)

 - Buffer overflow in the read_server_hello function in lib/gnutls_handshake.c in GnuTLS before 3.1.25, 3.2.x before 3.2.15, and 3.3.x before 3.3.4 allows remote servers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long session id in a ServerHello message. (CVE-2014-3466)

 - Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the DER decoder in GNU Libtasn1 before 3.6, as used in GnutTLS, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted ASN.1 data.
 (CVE-2014-3467)

 - The asn1_get_bit_der function in GNU Libtasn1 before 3.6 does not properly report an error when a negative bit length is identified, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause out-of-bounds access via crafted ASN.1 data. (CVE-2014-3468)

 - The (1) asn1_read_value_type and (2) asn1_read_value functions in GNU Libtasn1 before 3.6 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and crash) via a NULL value in an ivalue argument. (CVE-2014-3469)

Solution

Upgrade to Solaris 11.1.21.4.1.
