Vulnerability from certfr_avis - Published: - Updated:

Une vulnérabilité dans le traitement des certificats X.509 a été corrigée.

Description

Une vulnérabilité dans le traitement des certificats X.509 permettant d'utiliser un nom arbitraire a été corrigée dans la version 2.6.1. Cette dernière a été remplacée par la 2.6.2 car elle souffrait d'un défaut lors du traitement des certificats auto-signés qui provoquait des arrêts inopinés.

Solution

Les versions de GnuTLS antérieures à la 2.6.2.
