Summary
Moderate: gnutls and nettle security, bug fix, and enhancement update
Details

The gnutls packages provide the GNU Transport Layer Security (GnuTLS) library, which implements cryptographic algorithms and protocols such as SSL, TLS, and DTLS.

Nettle is a cryptographic library that is designed to fit easily in almost any context: In crypto toolkits for object-oriented languages, such as C++, Python, or Pike, in applications like LSH or GNUPG, or even in kernel space.

The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: gnutls (3.7.6), nettle (3.8).

Security Fix(es):

  • gnutls: Double free during gnutlspkcs7verify. (CVE-2022-2509)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Bug Fix(es):

  • [IBM 9.1] [P10] POWER10 performance enhancements for cryptography: nettle - incremental work (BZ#2102589)

  • Allow enabling KTLS in Rocky Linux 9.1 (BZ#2108532)

  • DES-CBC bag is decryptable under FIPS (BZ#2115314)

  • allow signature verification using RSA keys <2k in FIPS mode (BZ#2119770)
