"A flaw was found in the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() utility function. An
attacker could send a list of ciphers to an application that used this
function and overrun a buffer by a single byte (CVE-2007-5135). Few
applications make use of this vulnerable function and generally it is
used only when applications are compiled for debugging.

A number of possible side-channel attacks were discovered affecting
OpenSSL. A local attacker could possibly obtain RSA private keys being
used on a system. In practice these attacks would be difficult to
perform outside of a lab environment. This update contains backported
patches to mitigate these issues. (CVE-2007-3108)

As well, these updated packages fix the following bugs :

  - multithreaded applications could cause a segmentation
    fault or deadlock when calling the random number
    generator initialization (RAND_poll) in the OpenSSL
    library, for a large number of threads simultaneously.

  - in certain circumstances, if an application using the
    OpenSSL library reused the SSL session cache for
    multiple purposes (with various parameters of the SSL
    protocol), the session parameters could be mismatched.

  - a segmentation fault could occur when a corrupted pkcs12
    file was being loaded using the 'openssl pkcs12 -in
    [pkcs12-file]' command, where [pkcs12-file] is the
    pkcs12 file."
