CentOS Errata and Security Advisory CESA-2010:0167
The GnuTLS library provides support for cryptographic algorithms and for
protocols such as Transport Layer Security (TLS).
A flaw was found in the way the TLS/SSL (Transport Layer Security/Secure
Sockets Layer) protocols handled session renegotiation. A man-in-the-middle
attacker could use this flaw to prefix arbitrary plain text to a client’s
session (for example, an HTTPS connection to a website). This could force
the server to process an attacker’s request as if authenticated using the
victim’s credentials. This update addresses this flaw by implementing the
TLS Renegotiation Indication Extension, as defined in RFC 5746.
(CVE-2009-3555)
Refer to the following Knowledgebase article for additional details about
the CVE-2009-3555 flaw: http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-20491
A flaw was found in the way GnuTLS extracted serial numbers from X.509
certificates. On 64-bit big endian platforms, this flaw could cause the
certificate revocation list (CRL) check to be bypassed; cause various
GnuTLS utilities to crash; or, possibly, execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2010-0731)
Users of GnuTLS are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain backported patches to correct these issues. For the update to take
effect, all applications linked to the GnuTLS library must be restarted, or
the system rebooted.
