Package : gnutls28
CVE ID : CVE-2020-13777
Debian Bug : 962289

A flaw was reported in the TLS session ticket key construction in
GnuTLS, a library implementing the TLS and SSL protocols. The flaw
caused the TLS server to not securely construct a session ticket
encryption key considering the application supplied secret, allowing a
man-in-the-middle attacker to bypass authentication in TLS 1.3 and
recover previous conversations in TLS 1.2.

For the stable distribution (buster), this problem has been fixed in
version 3.6.7-4+deb10u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your gnutls28 packages.
