  found in the way OpenSSL parsed ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One) data

  (Distinguished Encoding Rules) encoded data read from a file or other BIO
  input could cause an application using the OpenSSL library to crash or,
  potentially, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-2110)

  a backported patch to resolve this issue. For the update to take effect,
