Announcement ID: SUSE-OU-2014:0565-1
Rating: low
References: #860332 #861014 #864912 #869945 #872299 #873351
Affected Products:
  • SUSE Linux Enterprise Security Module 11 SP3

  • An update that has 6 optional fixes can now be installed.

    Description:


    This update provides OpenSSL version 1.0.1g, delivered as
    an additional library version that can coexist with the
    original OpenSSL 0.9.8j from SUSE Linux Enterprise 11.

    OpenSSL 1.0 brings modern features such as:

    * TLS 1.2 support
    * AES-GCM cipher support

    Installing these packages will only make the library
    available on the system. All current programs will still
    be using OpenSSL 0.9.8j. You can however use this library
    to build and link your own programs.

    We will also release parallel software versions that will
    benefit from OpenSSL 1.0, currently planned is the Postfix
    Mail Server package.

    For development, install the "libopenssl1-devel" package
    instead of "libopenssl-devel".

    The library version shipped in this update already includes
    the upstream fix for the "HeartBleed" issue
    (CVE-2014-0160).

    Additionally, the update fixes a use-after-free issue in
    SSL buffer handling (CVE-2010-5298).

    Indications:

    Install if you want to use or build software against OpenSSL 1.0.
