Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/openssl-1.0.1g-i486-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes two security issues:
A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or server.
Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
Adam Langley <[email protected]> and Bodo Moeller <[email protected]> for
preparing the fix.
Fix for the attack described in the paper 'Recovering OpenSSL
ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack'
by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
