[security-announce] openSUSE-SU-2017:3345-1: important: Security update for openssl
openSUSE Security Update: Security update for openssl ______________________________________________________________________________ Announcement ID: openSUSE-SU-2017:3345-1 Rating: important References: #1071905 #1071906 Cross-References: CVE-2017-3737 CVE-2017-3738 Affected Products: openSUSE Leap 42.3 openSUSE Leap 42.2 ______________________________________________________________________________ An update that fixes two vulnerabilities is now available. Description: This update for openssl fixes the following issues: - OpenSSL Security Advisory [07 Dec 2017] * CVE-2017-3737: OpenSSL 1.0.2 (starting from version 1.0.2b) introduced an \"error state\" mechanism. The intent was that if a fatal error occurred during a handshake then OpenSSL would move into the error state and would immediately fail if you attempted to continue the handshake. This works as designed for the explicit handshake functions (SSL_do_handshake(), SSL_accept() and SSL_connect()), however due to a bug it does not work correctly if SSL_read() or SSL_write() is called directly. In that scenario, if the handshake fails then a fatal error will be returned in the initial function call. If SSL_read()/SSL_write() is subsequently called by the application for the same SSL object then it will succeed and the data is passed without being decrypted/encrypted directly from the SSL/TLS record layer. In order to exploit this issue an application bug would have to be present that resulted in a call to SSL_read()/SSL_write() being issued after having already received a fatal error. OpenSSL version 1.0.2b-1.0.2m are affected. Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2n. OpenSSL 1.1.0 is not affected. (bsc#1071905) * CVE-2017-3738: There is an overflow bug in the AVX2 Montgomery multiplication procedure used in exponentiation with 1024-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH1024 are considered just feasible, because most of the work necessary to deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount of resources required for such an attack would be significant. However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server would have to share the DH1024 private key among multiple clients, which is no longer an option since CVE-2016-0701. This only affects processors that support the AVX2 but not ADX extensions like Intel Haswell (4th generation). Note: The impact from this issue is similar to CVE-2017-3736, CVE-2017-3732 and CVE-2015-3193. (bsc#1071906) This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-12-SP2:Update update project.
