openssl: Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete

Published Oct 19, 2014

Description

OpenSSL before 0.9.8zc, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0o, and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1j does not properly enforce the no-ssl3 build option, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via an SSL 3.0 handshake, related to s23_clnt.c and s23_srvr.c.

Affected products

Remediation

Red Hat statement

Not vulnerable. The versions of openssl package as shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, 6 and 7; Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 5 and 6; and Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Web Server 1 and 2 are not build with the "no-ssl3" option and therefore are not vulnerable to this security flaw.
