Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
OpenSSL versions prior to 0.9.8y
OpenSSL versions prior to 1.0.0j
Description
The issue affects the OpenSSL package in Gentoo Linux, potentially leading to breaches in confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information. It is caused by an integer underflow in OpenSSL when TLS 1.1, TLS 1.2, or DTLS is used with CBC encryption. This can allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have other unspecified impacts via a crafted TLS packet.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 0.9.8y, update to version 0.9.8y or later.
For versions prior to 1.0.0j, update to version 1.0.0j or later.
