Robert Merget, Marcus Brinkmann, Nimrod Aviram, and Juraj Somorovsky discovered that certain Diffie-Hellman ciphersuites in the TLS specification and implemented by OpenSSL contained a flaw. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to eavesdrop on encrypted communications. This was fixed in this update by disabling the insecure ciphersuites.

For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version 1.0.2u-1~deb9u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your openssl1.0 packages.

For the detailed security status of openssl1.0 please refer to its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/openssl1.0

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
