open-ssl vuln & new fixing version

[shamanvirtuel]

Andy Polyakov discovered a flaw in OpenSSL's DTLS implementation which
could lead to the compromise of clients and servers with DTLS enabled.

DTLS is a datagram variant of TLS specified in RFC 4347 first
supported in OpenSSL version 0.9.8. Note that the vulnerabilities do
not affect SSL and TLS so only clients and servers explicitly using
DTLS are affected.

We believe this flaw will permit remote code execution.

This vulnerability is tracked as CVE-2007-4995.

Versions Affected
- -----------------

All releases of 0.9.8 prior to 0.9.8f.

Recommendation
- --------------

Either

a) Upgrade to the latest version of OpenSSL (0.9.8f) and rebuild all
packages using OpenSSL for DTLS.

Just a quite note on this. If you configure and compile OpenSSL with the shared(shared libraries) option, you may need to update SSH(I had to)...
