Security update for OpenSSL
SUSE Security Update: Security update for OpenSSL
OpenSSL has been updated to fix several security issues:
*
CVE-2012-4929: Avoid the openssl CRIME attack by
disabling SSL compression by default. Setting the
environment variable "OPENSSL_NO_DEFAULT_ZLIB" to "no"
enables compression again.
Please note that openssl on SUSE Linux Enterprise 10
is not built with compression support.
*
CVE-2013-0169: Timing attacks against TLS could be
used by physically local attackers to gain access to
transmitted plain text or private keymaterial. This issue
is also known as the "Lucky-13" issue.
*
CVE-2013-0166: A OCSP invalid key denial of service
issue was fixed.
