Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'libtasn1' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Vulnerability Insight: Libtasn1 is a library that provides Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1, as specified by the X.680 ITU-T recommendation) parsing and structures management, and Distinguished Encoding Rules (DER, as per X.690) encoding and decoding functions. The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: libtasn1 (4.10). (BZ#1360639) Security Fix(es): * A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way the libtasn1 library decoded certain DER-encoded inputs. A specially crafted DER-encoded input could cause an application using libtasn1 to perform an invalid read, causing the application to crash. (CVE-2015-3622) * A stack-based buffer overflow was found in the way libtasn1 decoded certain DER encoded data. An attacker could use this flaw to crash an application using the libtasn1 library. (CVE-2015-2806) Additional Changes: For detailed information on changes in this release, see the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.4 Release Notes linked from the References section.
Affected Software/OS: libtasn1 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 7)
Solution: Please Install the Updated Packages.
