A lib32-openssl security update has been released for Arch Linux.

ASA-202004-19: lib32-openssl: denial of service

Arch Linux Security Advisory ASA-202004-19
==========================================

Severity: High
Date : 2020-04-22
CVE-ID : CVE-2020-1967
Package : lib32-openssl
Type : denial of service
Remote : Yes
Link : https://security.archlinux.org/AVG-1142

Summary
=======

The package lib32-openssl before version 1.1.1.g-1 is vulnerable to
denial of service.

Resolution
==========

Upgrade to 1.1.1.g-1.

# pacman -Syu "lib32-openssl>=1.1.1.g-1"

The problem has been fixed upstream in version 1.1.1.g.

Workaround
==========

None.

Description
===========

A NULL pointer dereference has been found in OpenSSL versions 1.1.1d,
1.1.1e and 1.1.1f. Server or client applications that call the
SSL_check_chain() function during or after a TLS 1.3 handshake may
crash due to a NULL pointer dereference as a result of incorrect
handling of the "signature_algorithms_cert" TLS extension. The crash
occurs if an invalid or unrecognised signature algorithm is received
from the peer. This could be exploited by a malicious peer in a Denial
of Service attack.

Impact
======

A malicious server or client may crash an openssl/libssl process by
providing a maliciously-crafted SSL handshake
