Bjoern A. Zeeb 3571e53040 Import FreeBSD Security Advisories and Errata Notices, as well as their 
patches for easier mirroring, to eliminate a special copy, to make
www.freebsd.org/security a full copy of security.freebsd.org and be
eventually be the same.

For now files are just sitting there.   The symlinks are missing.

CVE Name: CVE-2006-4339
For general information regarding FreeBSD Security Advisories,
including descriptions of the fields above, security branches, and the
following sections, please visit
<URL:http://security.freebsd.org/>.
I. Background
FreeBSD includes software from the OpenSSL Project. The OpenSSL Project is
a collaborative effort to develop a robust, commercial-grade, full-featured,
and Open Source toolkit implementing the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3)
and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) protocols as well as a full-strength
general purpose cryptography library.
PKCS#1 v1.5 is a standard for "padding" data before performing a
cryptographic operation using the RSA algorithm. PKCS#1 v1.5 signatures
are for example used in X.509 certificates.
RSA public keys may use a variety of public exponents, of which 3, 17, and
65537 are most common. As a result of a number of known attacks, most keys
generated recently use a public exponent of at least 65537.
II. Problem Description
When verifying a PKCS#1 v1.5 signature, OpenSSL ignores any bytes which
follow the cryptographic hash being signed. In a valid signature there
will be no such bytes.
III. Impact
OpenSSL will incorrectly report some invalid signatures as valid. When
an RSA public exponent of 3 is used, or more generally when a small public
exponent is used with a relatively large modulus (e.g., a public exponent
of 17 with a 4096-bit modulus), an attacker can construct a signature which
OpenSSL will accept as a valid PKCS#1 v1.5 signature.
IV. Workaround
No workaround is available.
V. Solution
Perform one of the following:
1) Upgrade your vulnerable system to 4-STABLE, 5-STABLE, or 6-STABLE,
or to the RELENG_6_1, RELENG_6_0, RELENG_5_5, RELENG_5_4, RELENG_5_3,
or RELENG_4_11 security branch dated after the correction date.
2) To patch your present system:
The following patches have been verified to apply to FreeBSD 4.11, 5.3,
5.4, 5.5, 6.0, and 6.1 systems.
a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the
detached PGP signature using your PGP utility.
# fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-06:19/openssl.patch
# fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-06:19/openssl.patch.asc
b) Execute the following commands as root:
# cd /usr/src
# patch < /path/to/patch
c) Recompile the operating system as described in
<URL: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/makeworld.html> and reboot the
system.
NOTE: Any third-party applications, including those installed from the
FreeBSD ports collection, which are statically linked to libcrypto(3)
should be recompiled in order to use the corrected code.
