Title:	RedHat Update for gnutls RHSA-2013:0588-01
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'gnutls'; package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'gnutls' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. Vulnerability Insight: The GnuTLS library provides support for cryptographic algorithms and for protocols such as Transport Layer Security (TLS). It was discovered that GnuTLS leaked timing information when decrypting TLS/SSL protocol encrypted records when CBC-mode cipher suites were used. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to retrieve plain text from the encrypted packets by using a TLS/SSL server as a padding oracle. (CVE-2013-1619) Users of GnuTLS are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. For the update to take effect, all applications linked to the GnuTLS library must be restarted, or the system rebooted. Affected Software/OS: gnutls on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server), Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 6), Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 6), Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation (v. 6) Solution: Please Install the Updated Packages. CVSS Score: 4.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:N
