-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2013:262 http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : python-pycrypto Date : October 28, 2013 Affected: Business Server 1.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Updated python-pycrypto package fixes security vulnerability: In PyCrypto before v2.6.1, the Crypto.Random pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) exhibits a race condition that may cause it to generate the same 'random' output in multiple processes that are forked from each other. Depending on the application, this could reveal sensitive information or cryptographic keys to remote attackers (CVE-2013-1445). _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2013-1445 http://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2013-0319.html _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Business Server 1/X86_64: 9e1d85ee578d7784fe684789718b7a16 mbs1/x86_64/python-pycrypto-2.3-3.2.mbs1.x86_64.rpm bb1eee393936c861ea88e56fe6cbe206 mbs1/SRPMS/python-pycrypto-2.3-3.2.mbs1.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
