Red Hat Security Advisory
Synopsis: Low: erlang security and bug fix update
Advisory ID: RHSA-2018:0303-01
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform
Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:0303
Issue date: 2018-02-13
CVE Names: CVE-2017-1000385
=====================================================================
1. Summary:
An update for erlang is now available for Red Hat OpenStack Platform 11.0
(Ocata).
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Low. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which
gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from
the CVE link(s) in the References section.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat OpenStack Platform 11.0 - x86_64
3. Description:
Erlang is a general-purpose programming language and runtime environment.
Erlang has built-in support for concurrency, distribution and fault
tolerance.
Security Fix(es):
* An erlang TLS server configured with cipher suites using RSA key
exchange, may be vulnerable to an Adaptive Chosen Ciphertext attack (AKA
Bleichenbacher attack) against RSA. This may result in plain-text recovery
of encrypted messages and/or a man-in-the-middle (MiTM) attack, despite the
attacker not having gained access to the server’s private key itself.
(CVE-2017-1000385)
