"Updated gnutls packages that fix one security issue are now available
for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having
Important security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System
(CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is
available from the CVE link in the References section.

The GnuTLS library provides support for cryptographic algorithms and
for protocols such as Transport Layer Security (TLS).

It was discovered that GnuTLS did not correctly handle certain errors
that could occur during the verification of an X.509 certificate,
causing it to incorrectly report a successful verification. An
attacker could use this flaw to create a specially crafted certificate
that could be accepted by GnuTLS as valid for a site chosen by the
attacker. (CVE-2014-0092)

The CVE-2014-0092 issue was discovered by Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos of
the Red Hat Security Technologies Team.

Users of GnuTLS are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
which correct this issue. For the update to take effect, all
applications linked to the GnuTLS library must be restarted."
