    Description:
      According to an OpenSSL [0] security advisory [1], Czech cryptologists
      Vlastimil Klima, Ondrej Pokorny, and Tomas Rosa have come up with an
      extension of the "Bleichenbacher attack" on RSA with PKCS #1 v1.5
      padding as used in SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0. The attack was documented
      in their report "Attacking RSA-based Sessions in SSL/TLS" [2]. The
      Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id
      CAN-2003-0147 [3] to the problem.
    
      Their attack requires the attacker to open millions of SSL/TLS
      connections to the server under attack. The server's behaviour when
      faced with specially made-up RSA ciphertexts can reveal information
      that in effect allows the attacker to perform a single RSA private key
      operation on a ciphertext of its choice using the server's RSA key.
      Note that the server's RSA key is not compromised in this attack.
    
      Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm -q
      openssl". If you have the "openssl" package installed and its version
      is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade it
      (see Solution) and it's dependent packages (see above), if any, too.
      [4][5]
    
    Solution:
      Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
      [6][7], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [8][9] or a mirror
      location, verify its integrity [10], build a corresponding binary RPM
      from it [4] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the binary
      RPM [5]. For the current release OpenPKG 1.2, perform the following
      operations to permanently fix the security problem (for other releases
      adjust accordingly).
    
      $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
      ftp> bin
      ftp> cd release/1.2/UPD
      ftp> get openssl-0.9.7-1.2.3.src.rpm
      ftp> bye
      $ <prefix>/bin/rpm -v --checksig openssl-0.9.7-1.2.3.src.rpm
      $ <prefix>/bin/rpm --rebuild openssl-0.9.7-1.2.3.src.rpm
      $ su -
      # <prefix>/bin/rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/openssl-0.9.7-1.2.3.*.rpm
    
      Additionally, you have to rebuild and reinstall all dependent
      packages (see above), too. [4][5]
