    - -------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : openssl
    Vulnerability : several
    Problem type : local
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2013-6449 CVE-2013-6450
    Debian Bug : 732754 732710

    Multiple security issues have been fixed in OpenSSL: The TLS 1.2 support
    was susceptible to denial of service and retransmission of DTLS messages
    was fixed. In addition this updates disables the insecure Dual_EC_DRBG algorithm (which was unused anyway, see http://marc.info/?l=openssl-announce&m=138747119822324&w=2 for further information) and no longer uses the RdRand feature available on some
    Intel CPUs as a sole source of entropy unless explicitly requested.

    For the stable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in
    version 1.0.1e-2+deb7u1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
    version 1.0.1e-5.

    We recommend that you upgrade your openssl packages.
