+Description:
+ David Brumley and Dan Boneh of Stanford University have researched and
+ documented a timing attack on RSA private keys. [0] The OpenSSL [1]
+ RSA implementation is generally vulnerable to these type of attacks
+ unless RSA blinding has been turned on [2]. Typically, RSA blinding
+ is not enabled by OpenSSL based applications, mainly because it is
+ not obvious how to do so when using OpenSSL to provide SSL/TLS. This
+ problem affects mostly all applications using OpenSSL and have to be
+ rebuilded against the fixed OpenSSL version (where RSA blinding is now
+ enabled by default) or have to enable RSA blinding explicitly their
+ own. The performance impact of RSA blinding appears to be small (a few
+ percent only) and the RSA functionality is still fully compatible. The
+ Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id
+ CAN-2003-0147 [3] to the problem.
+
+ Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm -q
+ openssl". If you have the "openssl" package installed and its version
+ is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade it
+ (see Solution) and it's dependent packages (see above), if any, too.
+ [4][5]
+
+Solution:
+ Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
+ [6][7], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [8][9] or a mirror
+ location, verify its integrity [10], build a corresponding binary RPM
+ from it [4] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the binary
+ RPM [5]. For the current release OpenPKG 1.2, perform the following
+ operations to permanently fix the security problem (for other releases
+ adjust accordingly).
+
+ $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
+ ftp> bin
+ ftp> cd release/1.2/UPD
+ ftp> get openssl-0.9.7-1.2.1.src.rpm
+ ftp> bye
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm -v --checksig openssl-0.9.7-1.2.1.src.rpm
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm --rebuild openssl-0.9.7-1.2.1.src.rpm
+ $ su -
+ # <prefix>/bin/rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/openssl-0.9.7-1.2.1.*.rpm
+
+ Additionally, you have to rebuild and reinstall all dependent
+ packages (see above), too. [4][5]
