A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
Summary:
Add implicit rejection in PKCS#1 v1.5 in OpenSSL.
Software Description:
- openssl: Secure Socket Layer (SSL) cryptographic library and tools
Details:
USN-6663-1 provided a security update for OpenSSL.
This update provides the corresponding update for
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.
Original advisory details:
As a security improvement, OpenSSL will now
return deterministic random bytes instead of an error
when detecting wrong padding in PKCS#1 v1.5 RSA
to prevent its use in possible Bleichenbacher timing attacks.
