"The CentOS Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
TuxCare CENTOS6:CLSA-2025:1760559298 advisory.
- The OpenSSL DSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a timing side channel attack. An
attacker could use variations in the signing algorithm to recover the private key. Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.1a
(Affected 1.1.1). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.0j (Affected 1.1.0-1.1.0i). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2q (Affected
1.0.2-1.0.2p). (CVE-2018-0734)
- Normally in OpenSSL EC groups always have a co-factor present and this is used in side channel resistant
code paths. However, in some cases, it is possible to construct a group using explicit parameters (instead
of using a named curve). In those cases it is possible that such a group does not have the cofactor
present. This can occur even where all the parameters match a known named curve. If such a curve is used
then OpenSSL falls back to non-side channel resistant code paths which may result in full key recovery
during an ECDSA signature operation. In order to be vulnerable an attacker would have to have the ability
to time the creation of a large number of signatures where explicit parameters with no co-factor present
are in use by an application using libcrypto. For the avoidance of doubt libssl is not vulnerable because
explicit parameters are never used. Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.1d (Affected 1.1.1-1.1.1c). Fixed in OpenSSL
1.1.0l (Affected 1.1.0-1.1.0k). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2t (Affected 1.0.2-1.0.2s). (CVE-2019-1547)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
