tag_insight = "Two vulnerabilities were discovered in openssl, an implementation of
the SSL protocol, using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool.  More
information can be found in the following NISCC Vulnerability
Advisory:

http://www.uniras.gov.uk/vuls/2004/224012/index.htm

and this OpenSSL advisory:

http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20040317.txt

- CVE-2004-0079 - null-pointer assignment in the
do_change_cipher_spec() function.  A remote attacker could perform
a carefully crafted SSL/TLS handshake against a server that used
the OpenSSL library in such a way as to cause OpenSSL to crash.
Depending on the application this could lead to a denial of
service.

- CVE-2004-0081 - a bug in older versions of OpenSSL 0.9.6 that
can lead to a Denial of Service attack (infinite loop).

For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
openssl version 0.9.6c-2.woody.6, openssl094 version 0.9.4-6.woody.4
and openssl095 version 0.9.5a-6.woody.5.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you update your openssl package.";
