<a name=sslUSA></a>
<li><font color=#009000><strong>SECURITY FIX: Dec 2, 1999</strong></font><br>
A buffer overflow in the RSAREF code included in the
USA version of the libssl package (called <strong>sslUSA</strong>, is
possibly exploitable in httpd, ssh, or isakmpd, if SSL/RSA features
are enabled or used.<br>
<strong>NOTE: International users using the ssl26 package are not affected.</strong>
<p>
To check what package you are using, use
<pre>
<b>#</b> pkg_info sslUSA26
</pre>
The patched library says:<br>
"ssl26.1 USA-only non-commercial crypto libs incl. SSL & RSA"
<p>
Non-commercial USA users who installed the ssl package before December 2
should upgrade their <strong>sslUSA26</strong> package using:<br>
<pre>
<b>#</b> pkg_delete sslUSA26
<b>#</b> pkg_add -v sslUSA26.tar.gz
</pre>
Using the new <strong>sslUSA26.tar.gz</strong> files which have been placed
on the FTP mirrors.<br>
