The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201408-14 (stunnel: Information disclosure)

stunnel does not properly update the state of the pseudo-random       generator after fork-threading which causes subsequent children with the       same process ID to use the same entropy pool. ECDSA and DSA keys, when       not used in deterministic mode (RFC6979), rely on random data for its k       parameter to not leak private key information.

Impact :

A remote attacker may gain access to private key information from ECDSA       or DSA keys.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
