openssl096b security update (RHSA-2010-0173)
Original Release Date: March 30, 2010
Last Revised: March 30, 2010
Number: ASA-2010-076
Risk Level: Low
Advisory Version: 1.0
Advisory Status: Interim
1. Overview:
OpenSSL is a toolkit that 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.
It was discovered that OpenSSL did not always check the return value of the
bn_wexpand() function. An attacker able to trigger a memory allocation
failure in that function could cause an application using the OpenSSL
library to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the
name CVE-2009-3245 to this issue.
More information about these vulnerabilities can be found in the security
advisory issued by RedHat Linux:
* https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2010-0173.html

Recommended Actions for System Products:
Avaya strongly recommends that customers follow networking and security
best practices by implementing firewalls, ACLs, physical security or other
appropriate access restrictions. Though Avaya believes such restrictions
should always be in place; risk to Avaya's product and the surrounding
network from this potential vulnerability may be mitigated by ensuring
these practices are implemented until such time as a product update is
available or the recommended action is applied. Further restrictions as
deemed necessary based on the customer's security policies may be required
during this interim period.
3. Avaya Software-Only Products:
Avaya software-only products operate on general-purpose operating systems.
Occasionally vulnerabilities may be discovered in the underlying operating
system or applications that come with the operating system. These
vulnerabilities often do not impact the software-only product directly but
may threaten the integrity of the underlying platform.
In the case of this advisory Avaya software-only products are not affected
by the vulnerability directly but the underlying Linux platform may be.
Customers should determine on which Linux operating system the product was
installed and then follow that vendor's guidance.
