The Debian Security Team published a new security update for Debian GNU/Linux. Here the announcement:

Debian Security Advisory DSA 1185-2 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Noah Meyerhans
October 2nd, 2006 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : openssl
Vulnerability : denial of service
Problem-Type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2006-2940
The fix used to correct CVE-2006-2940 introduced code that could lead to
the use of uninitialized memory. Such use is likely to cause the
application using the openssl library to crash, and has the potential to
allow an attacker to cause the execution of arbitrary code.
For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in
version 0.9.7e-3sarge4.
For the unstable and testing distributions (sid and etch,
respectively), these problems will be fixed in version 0.9.7k-3 of the
openssl097 compatibility libraries, and version 0.9.8c-3 of the
openssl package.
We recommend that you upgrade your openssl package. Note that
services linking against the openssl shared libraries will need to be
restarted. Common examples of such services include most Mail
Transport Agents, SSH servers, and web servers.
Upgrade Instructions
- --------------------
wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.
If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:
apt-get update
will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
will install corrected packages
You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
