The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-3087-2 advisory.

USN-3087-1 fixed vulnerabilities in OpenSSL. The fix for CVE-2016-2182 was incomplete and caused a     regression when parsing certificates. This update fixes the problem.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

Shi Lei discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled the OCSP Status Request

extension. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause memory

consumption, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2016-6304)

Guido Vranken discovered that OpenSSL used undefined behaviour when

performing pointer arithmetic. A remote attacker could possibly use this

issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This

issue has only been addressed in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS in this update.

(CVE-2016-2177)

Csar Pereida, Billy Brumley, and Yuval Yarom discovered that OpenSSL

did not properly use constant-time operations when performing DSA signing.

A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a cache-timing

attack and recover private DSA keys. (CVE-2016-2178)

Quan Luo discovered that OpenSSL did not properly restrict the lifetime

of queue entries in the DTLS implementation. A remote attacker could

possibly use this issue to consume memory, resulting in a denial of

service. (CVE-2016-2179)

Shi Lei discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled memory in the

TS_OBJ_print_bio() function. A remote attacker could possibly use this

issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2016-2180)

It was discovered that the OpenSSL incorrectly handled the DTLS anti-replay

feature. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial

of service. (CVE-2016-2181)

Shi Lei discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly validated division results. A

remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service.

(CVE-2016-2182)

Karthik Bhargavan and Gaetan Leurent discovered that the DES and Triple DES

ciphers were vulnerable to birthday attacks. A remote attacker could

possibly use this flaw to obtain clear text data from long encrypted

sessions. This update moves DES from the HIGH cipher list to MEDIUM.

(CVE-2016-2183)

Shi Lei discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled certain ticket lengths.

A remote attacker could use this issue to cause a denial of service.

(CVE-2016-6302)

Shi Lei discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled memory in the

MDC2_Update() function. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to

cause a denial of service. (CVE-2016-6303)

Shi Lei discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly performed certain message

length checks. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a

denial of service. (CVE-2016-6306)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
