Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.12.2022.5710.1
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-5710-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'openssl' package(s) announced via the USN-5710-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'openssl' package(s) announced via the USN-5710-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
It was discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled certain X.509 Email
Addresses. If a certificate authority were tricked into signing a
specially-crafted certificate, a remote attacker could possibly use this
issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service. The
default compiler options for affected releases reduce the vulnerability to
a denial of service. (CVE-2022-3602, CVE-2022-3786)

It was discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled applications creating
custom ciphers via the legacy EVP_CIPHER_meth_new() function. This issue
could cause certain applications that mishandled values to the function to
possibly end up with a NULL cipher and messages in plaintext.
(CVE-2022-3358)

Affected Software/OS:
'openssl' package(s) on Ubuntu 22.04, Ubuntu 22.10.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
7.8
