bouncycastle: TLS CBC padding timing attack

It was discovered that bouncycastle leaked timing information when decrypting TLS/SSL protocol encrypted records when CBC-mode cipher suites were used. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to retrieve plain text from the encrypted packets by using a TLS/SSL server as a padding oracle...

First Phase of TrueCrypt Audit Turns Up No Backdoors

A initial audit of the popular open source encryption software TrueCrypt turned up fewer than a dozen vulnerabilities, none of which so far point toward a backdoor surreptitiously inserted into the codebase. A report on the first phase of the audit was released today by iSEC Partners, which was...

SOL15147 - OpenSSL vulnerability CVE-2013-6449

Recommended Action If the previous table lists a version in the Versions known to be not vulnerable column, you can eliminate this vulnerability by upgrading to the listed version. If the listed version is older than the version you are currently running, or if the table does not list any version...

AIX OpenSSH Vulnerability : openssh_advisory3.asc

The mmnewkeysfromblob function in monitorwrap.c in sshd in OpenSSH 6.2 and 6.3, when an AES-GCM cipher is used, does not properly initialize memory for a MAC context data structure, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended ForceCommand and login-shell restrictions via packet dat...
