    Package : openssl
    Vulnerability : invalid memory access
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2011-0014

    Neel Mehta discovered that an incorrectly formatted ClientHello handshake message could cause OpenSSL to parse past the end of the message. This
    allows an attacker to crash an application using OpenSSL by triggering
    an invalid memory access. Additionally, some applications may be vulnerable
    to expose contents of a parsed OCSP nonce extension.

    Packages in the oldstable distribution (lenny) are not affected by this problem.

    For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.9.8o-4squeeze1.

    For the testing distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.9.8o-5.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.9.8o-5.

    We recommend that you upgrade your invalid memory access packages.
