Debian Security Advisory DSA-1970-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Stefan Fritsch
January 13, 2010 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : openssl
Vulnerability : denial of service
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id : CVE-2009-4355

It was discovered that a significant memory leak could occur in openssl,
related to the reinitialization of zlib. This could result in a remotely
exploitable denial of service vulnerability when using the Apache httpd
server in a configuration where mod_ssl, mod_php5, and the php5-curl
extension are loaded.

The old stable distribution (etch) is not affected by this issue.

For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 0.9.8g-15+lenny6.

The packages for the arm architecture are not included in this advisory.
They will be released as soon as they become available.

For the testing distribution (squeeze) and the unstable distribution
(sid), this problem will be fixed soon. The issue does not seem to be
exploitable with the apache2 package contained in squeeze/sid.

We recommend that you upgrade your openssl packages. You also need to
restart your Apache httpd server to make sure it uses the updated
libraries.

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.

If you use apache2, you should restart it to make sure that it uses the
updated libraries:

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 alias lenny (stable)
- -----------------------------------------

Stable updates are available for alpha, amd64, armel, hppa, i386, ia64, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390 and sparc.
