Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libtasn1-6' package(s) announced via the DSA-3568-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Pascal Cuoq and Miod Vallat discovered that Libtasn1, a library to manage ASN.1 structures, does not correctly handle certain malformed DER certificates. A remote attacker can take advantage of this flaw to cause an application using the Libtasn1 library to hang, resulting in a denial of service.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 4.8-1. We recommend that you upgrade your libtasn1-6 packages. Affected Software/OS: 'libtasn1-6' package(s) on Debian 8. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 4.3 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P |
