Public bug reported:

Xenial's current OpenSSL (1.0.2g-1ubuntu4.16) seems to not have been
patched yet against the Racoon Attack (CVE-2020-1968):

- https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv/20200909.txt
- https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2020-1968
- https://raccoon-attack.com/

Ubuntu's CVE tracker still lists this as NEEDED for Xenial:

- https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2020/CVE-2020-1968.html
- https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/pkg/openssl.html


Other supported Ubuntu releases use versions of OpenSSL that are not affected.


Indeed:

  $ apt-cache policy openssl
  openssl:
    Installed: 1.0.2g-1ubuntu4.16

  $ apt-get changelog openssl | grep CVE-2020-1968 || echo "Not patched"
  Not patched


What is the status?

** Affects: openssl (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Information type changed from Private Security to Public
