USN-2821-1 GnuTLS vulnerability


Severity

High

Vendor

GnuTLS

Versions Affected

  • Ubuntu 14.04

Description

It was discovered that GnuTLS incorrectly validated the first byte of padding in CBC modes. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a padding oracle attack.

The Cloud Foundry project released a BOSH stemcell version 3146 that has the patched version of the Linux kernel. A new Cloud Foundry rootfs was also released, cflinuxfs2 v.1.20.0, that has the patches.

Pivotal is releasing an updated version of Pivotal Cloud Foundry Suite which references this patched BOSH stemcell and CF rootfs.

Affected VMware Products and Versions

Severity is high unless otherwise noted.

  • All versions of Cloud Foundry BOSH stemcells prior to 3146 are vulnerable.
  • All versions of Cloud Foundry cflinuxfs2 prior to v.1.20.0.
  • Pivotal Cloud Foundry Elastic Runtime pre-1.5.9 versions and 1.6.x versions prior to 1.6.6.
  • Pivotal Ops Manager pre-1.5.10 versions and 1.6.x versions prior to 1.6.4.
  • Pivotal Redis pre-1.4.14 versions and 1.5.x versions prior to 1.5.2.
