EulerOS 2.0 SP2 : openssl (EulerOS-SA-2017-1030)

high Nessus Plugin ID 99875

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

According to the versions of the openssl packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - An integer underflow leading to an out of bounds read flaw was found in OpenSSL. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to crash a 32-bit TLS/SSL server or client using OpenSSL if it used the RC4-MD5 cipher suite. (CVE-2017-3731)

 - A denial of service flaw was found in the way the TLS/SSL protocol defined processing of ALERT packets during a connection handshake. A remote attacker could use this flaw to make a TLS/SSL server consume an excessive amount of CPU and fail to accept connections form other clients. (CVE-2016-8610)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected openssl packages.
