Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: openssl security update for Stronghold

Notes

Topic
A new Stronghold 3 release is available which contains an updated fix for the OpenSSL ASN1 vulnerability.
Details
OpenSSL is a commercial-grade, full-featured, open source toolkit which implements the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) protocols, as well as a full-strength general purpose cryptography library. The OpenSSL group found an issue in the patch that was released to fix the previous vulnerability in the ASN.1 routines (RHSA-2002-164, CAN-2002-0659). The previous patch did not completely eliminate the initial vulnerability and could lead to Denial of Service (DoS) attacks against a server. It has not been verified if this issue could lead to further consequences, such as remote code execution.
