Notes
Topic: An update for Red Hat Hardened Images RPMs is now available.
Details: This update includes the following RPMs: chunkah: * chunkah-0.6.0-3.hum1 (aarch64, x86_64) * chunkah-0.6.0-3.hum1.src (src)

A flaw was found in OpenSSL. A malicious TLS (Transport Layer Security) server can exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) response during the X.509 certificate chain verification process. This can lead to a memory leak in client applications that have enabled OCSP response checking. Repeated connections to a malicious server could exhaust the client's memory, ultimately resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
