DSA-2141 consists of three individual parts, which can be viewed in the mailing list archive: DSA 2141-1 (openssl), DSA 2141-2 (nss), DSA 2141-3 (apache2), and DSA 2141-4 (lighttpd). This page only covers the first part, openssl.
If openssl is used in a server application, it will by default no longer accept renegotiation from clients that do not support the RFC5746 secure renegotiation extension. A separate advisory will add RFC5746 support for nss, the security library used by the iceweasel web browser. For apache2, there will be an update which allows to re-enable insecure renegotiation.
This version of openssl is not compatible with older versions of tor. You have to use at least tor version 0.2.1.26-1~lenny+1, which has been included in the point release 5.0.7 of Debian stable.
Currently we are not aware of other software with similar compatibility problems.

- CVE-2009-3555
Marsh Ray, Steve Dispensa, and Martin Rex discovered a
flaw in the TLS and SSLv3 protocols. If an attacker
could perform a man in the middle attack at the start of
a TLS connection, the attacker could inject arbitrary
content at the beginning of the user's session. This
update adds backported support for the new RFC5746
renegotiation extension which fixes this issue.
If openssl is used in a server application, it will by default no
longer accept renegotiation from clients that do not support the
RFC5746 secure renegotiation extension. A separate advisory will add
RFC5746 support for nss, the security library used by the iceweasel
web browser. For apache2, there will be an update which allows to
re-enable insecure renegotiation.
This version of openssl is not compatible with older versions of

has been included in the point release 5.0.7 of Debian stable.
Currently we are not aware of other software with similar
compatibility problems.
- CVE-2010-4180
In addition, this update fixes a flaw that allowed a
client to bypass restrictions configured in the server
for the used cipher suite."
