Jul 21, 2014 · How to patch OpenSSL Heartbleed vulnerability Recently a vulnerability discovered with certain versions of OpenSSL . OpenSSL is a toolkit which implements SSL/TLS protocols as well as general cryptography for various operating systems.

Why don't you join the mailing list at openssl-dev@openssl.org to discuss it? @CounterPillow , thanks for the explanation. "steve", in this case, is the well-known handle for Dr. Stephen Henson ( steve@openssl.org ), one of the 4 members of the current OpenSSL core team. As of today, a bug in OpenSSL has been found affecting versions 1.0.1 through 1.0.1f (inclusive) and 1.0.2-beta. Since Ubuntu 12.04, we are all vulnerable to this bug. In order to patch this Apr 11, 2014 · With that in mind, a vulnerability known as Heartbleed (or CVE-2014-0160) was recently discovered in the OpenSSL 1.01 and 1.02 beta product. This is used on web servers, email servers, virtual Heartbleed Bug: Flaw in OpenSSL versions 1.0.1 through 1.0.1f and 1.0.2-beta1 On April 7, 2014, the Heartbleed bug was revealed to the Internet community. The Heartbleed bug is not a flaw in the SSL or TLS protocols; rather, it is a flaw in the OpenSSL implementation of the TLS/DTLS heartbeat functionality. [edit] according to OpenSSL Security Bug-Heartbleed (Doc ID 1645479.1) the version of OpenSSL shipped with Solaris does not have a problem. Like Show 0 Likes (0) Actions

Technology Alert: OpenSSL "Heartbleed" Vulnerability Printable Format: FIL-16-2014 - PDF (). Summary: The FDIC, as a member of the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC), is issuing the attached alert advising financial institutions of a material security vulnerability in OpenSSL, a popular cryptographic library used to authenticate Internet services and encrypt sensitive

What is the Heartbleed bug, how does it work and how was it fixed? The mistake that caused the Heartbleed vulnerability can be traced to a single line of code in OpenSSL, an open source code library.

The Heartbleed Bug is a serious vulnerability in the popular OpenSSL cryptographic software library. This weakness can allow an attacker to steal information that is normally protected by the SSL/TLS encryption used to secure communications on the Internet.

The Heartbleed Bug is a serious vulnerability in the popular OpenSSL cryptographic software library. This weakness allows stealing the information protected, under normal conditions, by the SSL/TLS encryption used to secure the Internet. A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension can be used to reveal up to 64kB of memory to a connected client or server (a.k.a. Heartbleed). This issue did not affect versions of OpenSSL prior to 1.0.1. Reported by Neel Mehta. Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.1g (Affected 1.0.1-1.0.1f) CVE-2014-0076 (OpenSSL advisory) 14 February 2014:
