Category:SuSE Local Security Checks
Title:SUSE: Security Advisory for openssl (SUSE-SA:2009:006)
Summary:The remote host is missing updates announced in;advisory SUSE-SA:2009:006.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory SUSE-SA:2009:006.

Vulnerability Insight:
The OpenSSL certificate checking routines EVP_VerifyFinal can return
negative values and 0 on failure. In some places negative values
were not checked and considered successful verification.
Prior to this update it was possible to bypass the certification
chain checks of openssl.

This advisory is for the updates that improve the verification of
return values inside the OpenSSL library itself.

Several client programs also need to receive fixes to check that
return value.

A bind update which fixes this was already released yesterday,
tracked in SUSE-SA:2009:005.
A boinc-client and libnasl update was also released yesterday.
Updates for ntp, xntp, and eID-Belgium are being prepared.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
