		 NetBSD Security Advisory 2011-002
		 =================================

Topic:		OpenSSL TLS extension parsing race condition.


Version:	NetBSD-current:		source prior to February 11, 2011
		NetBSD 5.0.*:		affected
		NetBSD 5.0:		affected
		NetBSD 5.1:		affected
		NetBSD 4.0.*:		not affected
		NetBSD 4.0:		not affected
		pkgsrc:			openssl package prior to 0.9.8qnb1

Severity:	Denial of Service and potential Information Disclosure

Fixed:		NetBSD-current:		February 11, 2011
		NetBSD-5-0 branch:	February 17, 2011
		NetBSD-5-1 branch:	February 17, 2011
		NetBSD-5 branch:	February 17, 2011
		pkgsrc 2010Q4:		openssl-0.9.8qnb1 corrects this issue

Please note that NetBSD releases prior to 4.0 are no longer supported.
It is recommended that all users upgrade to a supported release.


Abstract
========

Incorrectly formatted ClientHello handshake messages could cause OpenSSL
to parse past the end of the message.

Applications are only affected if they act as a server and call
SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_status_cb on the server's SSL_CTX. This includes
Apache httpd >= 2.3.3, if configured with "SSLUseStapling On".

This vulnerability has been assigned CVE-2011-0014.


Technical Details
=================

Incorrectly formatted ClientHello handshake messages could cause OpenSSL
to parse past the end of the message. An attacker may be able to cause
a crash (denial of service) by triggering invalid memory accesses.

The results of the parse are only available to the application using
OpenSSL so do not directly cause an information leak. However, some
applications may expose the contents of parsed OCSP extensions,
specifically an OCSP nonce extension. An attacker could use this to read
the contents of memory following the ClientHello.

See http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20110208.txt for the vulnerability
announcement from OpenSSL.


Solutions and Workarounds
=========================

- - Patch, recompile, and reinstall libssl.

  CVS branch	file							revision
  -------------	----------------					--------
  HEAD		src/crypto/external/bsd/openssl/dist/ssl/t1_lib.c	1.4

  CVS branch	file						revision
  -------------	----------------				--------
  netbsd-5-1	src/crypto/dist/openssl/ssl/t1_lib.c		1.2.12.3

  netbsd-5-0	src/crypto/dist/openssl/ssl/t1_lib.c		1.2.8.3

  netbsd-5	src/crypto/dist/openssl/ssl/t1_lib.c		1.2.4.3


The following instructions briefly summarize how to update and
recompile libssl. In these instructions, replace:

  BRANCH   with the appropriate CVS branch (from the above table)
  FILES    with the file names for that branch (from the above table)

To update from CVS, re-build, and re-install libc and sftp:

* NetBSD-current:

        # cd src
        # cvs update -d -P -A crypto/external/bsd/openssl/dist/ssl
        # cd lib/libcrypt
        # make USETOOLS=no cleandir dependall
        # make USETOOLS=no install
        # cd ../../crypto/external/bsd/openssl/lib/libcrypto
        # make USETOOLS=no cleandir dependall
        # make USETOOLS=no install
        # cd ../libssl
        # make USETOOLS=no cleandir dependall
        # make USETOOLS=no install

* NetBSD 5.*:

        # cd src
        # cvs update -d -P -r BRANCH crypto/dist/openssl/ssl
        # cd lib/libcrypt
        # make USETOOLS=no cleandir dependall
        # make USETOOLS=no install
        # cd ../libcrypto
        # make USETOOLS=no cleandir dependall
        # make USETOOLS=no install
        # cd ../libssl
        # make USETOOLS=no cleandir dependall
        # make USETOOLS=no install

For more information on building (oriented towards rebuilding the
entire system, however) see:
