It was discovered that OpenSSL did not properly perform signature verification on DSA and ECDSA keys. If user or automated system connected to a malicious server or a remote attacker were able to perform a man-in-the-middle attack, this flaw could be exploited to view sensitive information.

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