The Debian Security Team published a new security update for Debian GNU/Linux. Here the announcement:

Hash: SHA1

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Debian Security Advisory DSA-1379-2 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Noah Meyerhans
October 10, 2007
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : openssl097, openssl096
Vulnerability : off-by-one error/buffer overflow
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2007-5135
Debian Bug : 444435

An off-by-one error has been identified in the SSL_get_shared_ciphers()
routine in OpenSSL, an implementation of Secure Socket Layer
cryptographic libraries and utilities. This error could allow an
attacker to crash an application making use of OpenSSL's libssl library,
or potentially execute arbitrary code in the security context of the
user running such an application.

This update to DSA 1379 announces the availability of the libssl0.9.6
and libssl0.9.7 compatibility libraries for sarge (oldstable) and etch
(stable), respectively.

We recommend that you upgrade your openssl097 and openssl096 packages.

Upgrade instructions
- --------------------

wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.

Debian 3.1 (oldstable)
- ----------------------

Oldstable updates are available for alpha, amd64, arm, hppa, i386, ia64, m68k, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390 and sparc.
