+ <title>GnuTLS: RSA Signature Forgery</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ GnuTLS fails to handle excess data which could allow an attacker to forge a
+ PKCS #1 v1.5 signature.

+ <affected>
+ <package name="net-libs/gnutls" auto="yes" arch="*">
+ <unaffected range="ge">1.4.4</unaffected>

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ GnuTLS is an implementation of SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ verify.c fails to properly handle excess data in
+ digestAlgorithm.parameters field while generating a hash when using an
+ RSA key with exponent 3. RSA keys that use exponent 3 are commonplace.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ Remote attackers could forge PKCS #1 v1.5 signatures that are signed
+ with an RSA key, preventing GnuTLS from correctly verifying X.509 and
+ other certificates that use PKCS.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All GnuTLS users should update both packages:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --update --ask --verbose "&gt;=net-libs/gnutls-1.4.4"</code>
