A race condition flaw has been found in the OpenSSL TLS server extension parsing code, which could affect some multithreaded OpenSSL applications. Under certain specific conditions, it may be possible for a remote attacker to trigger this race condition and cause such an application to crash, or possibly execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the application. (CVE-2010-3864)

Note that this issue does not affect the Apache HTTP Server.

For the update to take effect, all services linked to the OpenSSL library must be restarted, or the system rebooted.
