    			SCO Security Advisory
    
    Subject:		Linux: several recently discovered openssl vulnerabilities
    Advisory number: 	CSSA-2003-014.0
    Issue date: 		2003 March 21
    Cross reference:

    1. Problem Description
    
    	Dan Boneh and David Brumley have successfully implemented an
    	RSA timing attack against openssl. This updated version guards
    	against this attack. In an upcoming paper, Brice Canvel (EPFL),
    	Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and Martin Vuagnoux
    	(EPFL, Ilion) describe and demonstrate a timing-based attack on
    	CBC ciphersuites in SSL and TLS.
    
    
    2. Vulnerable Supported Versions
    
    	System				Package
    	----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    	OpenLinux 3.1.1 Server		prior to openssl-0.9.6-21.i386.rpm
    					prior to openssl-devel-0.9.6-21.i386.rpm
    					prior to openssl-devel-static-0.9.6-21.i386.rpm
    
    	OpenLinux 3.1.1 Workstation	prior to openssl-0.9.6-21.i386.rpm
    					prior to openssl-devel-0.9.6-21.i386.rpm
    					prior to openssl-devel-static-0.9.6-21.i386.rpm
    
    	OpenLinux 3.1 Server		prior to openssl-0.9.6-21.i386.rpm
    					prior to openssl-devel-0.9.6-21.i386.rpm
    					prior to openssl-devel-static-0.9.6-21.i386.rpm
    
    	OpenLinux 3.1 Workstation	prior to openssl-0.9.6-21.i386.rpm
    					prior to openssl-devel-0.9.6-21.i386.rpm
    					prior to openssl-devel-static-0.9.6-21.i386.rpm
    
    
    3. Solution
    
    	The proper solution is to install the latest packages. Many
    	customers find it easier to use the Caldera System Updater, called
    	cupdate (or kcupdate under the KDE environment), to update these
    	packages rather than downloading and installing them by hand.
