It was discovered that there were two issues in the 1.0 branch of the OpenSSL cryptographic system :

  • CVE-2021-23840: Prevent an issue where ‘Digital EnVeloPe’ EVP-related calls could cause applications to behave incorrectly or even crash.

  • CVE-2021-23841: Prevent an issue in the X509 certificate handling caused by the lack of error handling whilst parsing ‘issuer’ fields.

For Debian 9 ‘Stretch’, these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.2u-1~deb9u4. For the equivalent changes for the 1.1 branch of OpenSSL, please see DLA-2563-1.

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.
