Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-0377-01
Posted Apr 8, 2014
Authored by Red Hat | Site access.redhat.com

Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-0377-01 - OpenSSL is a toolkit that implements the Secure Sockets Layer and Transport Layer Security protocols, as well as a full-strength, general purpose cryptography library. An information disclosure flaw was found in the way OpenSSL handled TLS and DTLS Heartbeat Extension packets. A malicious TLS or DTLS client or server could send a specially crafted TLS or DTLS Heartbeat packet to disclose a limited portion of memory per request from a connected client or server. Note that the disclosed portions of memory could potentially include sensitive information such as private keys.

full-strength, general purpose cryptography library.

An information disclosure flaw was found in the way OpenSSL handled TLS and

limited portion of memory per request from a connected client or server.
Note that the disclosed portions of memory could potentially include
sensitive information such as private keys. (CVE-2014-0160)

Red Hat would like to thank the OpenSSL project for reporting this issue.
Upstream acknowledges Neel Mehta of Google Security as the original
reporter.

All users of Red Hat Storage are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. For the
update to take effect, all services linked to the OpenSSL library (such as
httpd and other SSL-enabled services) must be restarted or the system
rebooted.
