Important: openssl098e

Description

**Issue Overview:** Multiple numeric conversion errors, leading to a buffer overflow, were found in the way OpenSSL parsed ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One) data from BIO (OpenSSL's I/O abstraction) inputs. Specially-crafted DER (Distinguished Encoding Rules) encoded data read from a file or other BIO input could cause an application using the OpenSSL library to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-2110) **Affected Packages:** openssl098e **Issue Correction:** Run _yum update openssl098e_ to update your system. **New Packages:** i686:     openssl098e-0.9.8e-17.8.amzn1.i686     openssl098e-debuginfo-0.9.8e-17.8.amzn1.i686 src:     openssl098e-0.9.8e-17.8.amzn1.src x86_64:     openssl098e-debuginfo-0.9.8e-17.8.amzn1.x86_64     openssl098e-0.9.8e-17.8.amzn1.x86_64 ### Additional References Red Hat: [CVE-2012-2110](<https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2012-2110>) Mitre: [CVE-2012-2110](<https://vulners.com/cve/CVE-2012-2110>)
