Package: openssl
Version: 0.9.7e-3
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: user security hole


openssl.cnf defaults to usage of MD5 as digest algorithm for generation
of certificates and CAs.  MD5 must be considered broken beyond hope,
we're not just talking about theoretical attacks, but attacks feasible
for everybody. X.509 keys with colliding checksums (and thus false
certificates) have been shown. See:

http://www.cits.rub.de/MD5Collisions/

for another example.

Unfortunately, there seem to be problems with RIPEMD160 in practice
(e.g. the Debian Thunderbird package doesn't understand RIPEMD160).  So
the only reasonable choice at the moment is SHA-1, even though SHA-1 has
been theoretically weakend already, and RIPEMD160 would be preferable.  
I suggest adding

default_md: sha-1

in the req and ca sections of openssl.cnf, and talking the upstream
maintainers into supporting SHA-384 or SHA-512.

The proper way to do this would be to close it with the proper
version.  It will still be marked as existing in sarge.
