Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.61071
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:107 (openssl)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to openssl
announced via advisory MDVSA-2008:107.

Testing using the Codenomicon TLS test suite discovered a flaw in
the handling of server name extension data in OpenSSL 0.9.8f and
OpenSSL 0.9.8g. If OpenSSL has been compiled using the non-default
TLS server name extensions, a remote attacker could send a carefully
crafted packet to a server application using OpenSSL and cause a
crash. (CVE-2008-0891)

Testing using the Codenomicon TLS test suite discovered a flaw if
the 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS handshake
in OpenSSL 0.9.8f and OpenSSL 0.9.8g. If a client connects to a
malicious server with particular cipher suites, the server could
cause the client to crash. (CVE-2008-1672)

The updated packages have been patched to fix these flaws.

Note that any applications using this library must be restarted for
the update to take effect.

Affected: 2008.1

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
