[slackware-security] gnutls (SSA:2020-091-01)
New gnutls packages are available for Slackware 14.2 and -current to
fix a security issue.
Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/gnutls-3.6.13-i586-1_slack14.2.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes a security issue:
libgnutls: Fix a DTLS-protocol regression (caused by TLS1.3 support),
since 3.6.3. The DTLS client would not contribute any randomness to the
DTLS negotiation, breaking the security guarantees of the DTLS protocol.
