Package : openssl
Version : 1.1.1w-0+deb11u2
CVE ID : CVE-2023-5678 CVE-2024-0727 CVE-2024-2511 CVE-2024-4741

The previous update to openssl for Debian "bullseye" LTS was uploaded
with an incorrect version number. As a result, the apt tool would not
select the updated package for installation on otherwise up-to-date
"bullseye" systems. This has now been corrected.

For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version
1.1.1w-0+deb11u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your openssl packages.

For the detailed security status of openssl please refer to
its security tracker page at:

ELA-1226-1 perl security update

CVE-2020-16156
CVE-2023-31484

Perl a popular script language was affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

CVE-2020-16156:
An attacker can prepend checksums for modified
packages to the beginning of CHECKSUMS files,
before the cleartext PGP headers. This makes
the Module::Signature::_verify() checks
in both cpan and cpanm pass.
Without the sigtext and plaintext arguments
to _verify(), the _compare() check is bypassed.
This results in _verify() only checking that
valid signed cleartext is present somewhere
in the file.

CVE-2023-31484:
CPAN.pm does not verify TLS certificates
when downloading distributions over HTTPS.
