Description Funda Wang 2013-02-06 20:05:15 CET
Several security problems have been founded in openssl before in 1.0.0k:

* CVE-2013-0169: SSL, TLS and DTLS Plaintext Recovery Attack. Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered a weakness in the handling of CBC ciphersuites in SSL, TLS and DTLS. Their attack exploits timing differences arising during MAC processing. 
* CVE-2013-0166: OCSP invalid key DoS issue. A flaw in the OpenSSL handling of OCSP response verification can be exploitedin a denial of service attack.

The packages have been updated to latest 1.0.0k to fix above security flaws.

Testing complete on Mageia 2 i586 and x86_64.

Could someone from the sysadmin team push the srpm
openssl-1.0.0k-1.mga2.src.rpm
from Mageia 2 Core Updates Testing to Core Updates.
