TITLE:
Red Hat Update for rhpki-util, rhpki-common, and rhpki-ca

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA27557

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/27557/

CRITICAL:
Not critical

IMPACT:
Security Bypass

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Red Hat Certificate System 7.x
http://secunia.com/product/7017/

DESCRIPTION:
Red Hat has issued an update for rhpki-util, rhpki-common, and
rhpki-ca. This fixes a security issue, which can result in bypassing
certain security restrictions.

The security issue is caused due to an error in the processing of new
revocations while a Certificate Revocation List (CRL) is being
generated. This can cause revoked certificates at the upper end of
the serial number range to not appear on the CRL for an unspecified
period of time and can result in the CRL being bypassed.

NOTE: Reportedly, it is not possible to influence which revoked
certificate entries are missing or the time period.

SOLUTION:
Updated packages are available via Red Hat Network.
