This update for gnutls fixes the following issues :

  • GNUTLS-SA-2017-3 / CVE-2017-7869: An out-of-bounds write in OpenPGP certificate decoding was fixed (bsc#1034173)

  • CVE-2017-6891: A potential stack-based buffer overflow in the bundled libtasn1 was fixed (bsc#1040621)

  • An address read of 4 bytes past the end of buffer in OpenPGP certificate parsing was fixed (bsc#1038337)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
