+ <title>stunnel: Security bypass</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ stunnel does not properly prevent the authentication of a revoked
+ certificate which would be published by OCSP.

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ The stunnel program is designed to work as an SSL encryption wrapper
+ between a remote client and a local or remote server. OCSP (Online
+ Certificate Status Protocol), as described in RFC 2560, is an internet
+ protocol used for obtaining the revocation status of an X.509 digital
+ certificate.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ An unspecified bug in the OCSP search functionality of stunnel has been
+ discovered.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="low">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker can use a revoked certificate that would be
+ successfully authenticated by stunnel. This issue only concerns the
+ users who have enabled the OCSP validation in stunnel.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All stunnel users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-misc/stunnel-4.24"</code>
+ </resolution>
