gnutls was updated to fix a security issue :

A certificate algorithm consistency checking issue was fixed (CVE-2015-0294).

Updated gnutls packages that fix three security issues and one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Moderate security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

The GnuTLS library provides support for cryptographic algorithms and for protocols such as Transport Layer Security (TLS).

It was found that GnuTLS did not check activation and expiration dates of CA certificates. This could cause an application using GnuTLS to incorrectly accept a certificate as valid when its issuing CA is already expired. (CVE-2014-8155)

It was found that GnuTLS did not verify whether a hashing algorithm listed in a signature matched the hashing algorithm listed in the certificate. An attacker could create a certificate that used a different hashing algorithm than it claimed, possibly causing GnuTLS to use an insecure, disallowed hashing algorithm during certificate verification. (CVE-2015-0282)

It was discovered that GnuTLS did not check if all sections of X.509 certificates indicate the same signature algorithm. This flaw, in combination with a different flaw, could possibly lead to a bypass of the certificate signature check. (CVE-2015-0294)

The CVE-2014-8155 issue was discovered by Marcel Kolaja of Red Hat.
The CVE-2015-0282 and CVE-2015-0294 issues were discovered by Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos of the Red Hat Security Technologies Team.

This update also fixes the following bug :

* Previously, under certain circumstances, the certtool utility could generate X.509 certificates which contained a negative modulus.
Consequently, such certificates could have interoperation problems with the software using them. The bug has been fixed, and certtool no longer generates X.509 certificates containing a negative modulus.
(BZ#1036385)

Users of gnutls are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues.

gnutls was updated to fix a certificate algorithm consistency checking issue. (CVE-2015-0294)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - GnuTLS before 3.3.13 does not validate that the signature algorithms match when importing a certificate.
    (CVE-2015-0294)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in GnuTLS, a library implementing the TLS and SSL protocols. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :

CVE-2014-8155

Missing date/time checks on CA certificates

CVE-2015-0282

GnuTLS does not verify the RSA PKCS #1 signature algorithm to match the signature algorithm in the certificate, leading to a potential downgrade to a disallowed algorithm without detecting it.

CVE-2015-0294

GnuTLS does not check whether the two signature algorithms match on certificate import.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

GnuTLS was updated to fix two security issues :

  - A certificate algorithm consistency checking issue was     fixed, where GnuTLS did not check whether the two     signature algorithms match on certificate import. This     problem is not deemed to be exploitable currently.
    (CVE-2015-0294)

  - GNUTLS-SA-2015-1: GnuTLS did not verify the RSA PKCS #1     signature algorithm to match the signature algorithm in     the certificate, leading to a potential downgrade to a     disallowed algorithm, such as MD5, without detecting it.
    (CVE-2015-0282)

GnuTLS before 3.3.13 does not validate that the signature algorithms match when importing a certificate. (CVE-2015-0294)

Impact

GnuTLS does not check if all sections of X.509 certificates indicate the same signature algorithm. This flaw, in combination with a different flaw, can lead to a bypass of the certificate signature check.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in GnuTLS, a library implementing the TLS and SSL protocols. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :

  - CVE-2015-0282     GnuTLS does not verify the RSA PKCS #1 signature     algorithm to match the signature algorithm in the     certificate, leading to a potential downgrade to a     disallowed algorithm without detecting it.

  - CVE-2015-0294     It was reported that GnuTLS does not check whether the     two signature algorithms match on certificate import.
