Solutions and Workarounds
=========================
Release of NetBSD 1.6.2 is imminent. This is a reminder
to consider upgrading when they are available, if you are running
anything older than NetBSD 1.6 Many security-related improvements
have been made.
NetBSD 1.6.2 may be considered a binary patch for this advisory.
* Rebuilding from source:
libcrypto and libssl have to be rebuilt.
The following instructions describe how to upgrade your libcrypto and
libssl binaries by updating your source tree and rebuilding and
installing a new version of libcrypto and libssl.
* NetBSD-current:
NetBSD-current has included the OpenSSL 0.9.7 series since July 24,
2003, therefore upgrading to sources after July 24, 2003 is required.
* NetBSD 1.6, 1.6.1:
The binary distributions of NetBSD 1.6 and 1.6.1 are vulnerable.
Systems running NetBSD 1.6 sources dated from before
2003-11-07 should be upgraded from NetBSD 1.6 sources dated
2003-11-08 or later.
NetBSD 1.6.2 will include the fix.
The following directories need to be updated from the
netbsd-1-6 CVS branch:
crypto/dist/openssl
To update from CVS, re-build, and re-install libcrypto and libssl:
# cd lib/libcrypto
# make cleandir dependall
# make install
# cd ../../lib/libssl
# make cleandir dependall
# make install
* NetBSD 1.5, 1.5.1, 1.5.2, 1.5.3:
The binary distribution of NetBSD 1.5 to 1.5.3 are vulnerable.
Systems running NetBSD 1.5, 1.5.1, 1.5.2, or 1.5.3 sources dated
from before 2003-11-06 should be upgraded from NetBSD 1.5.*
sources dated 2003-11-07 or later.
The following directories need to be updated from the
netbsd-1-5 CVS branch:
crypto/dist/openssl
To update from CVS, re-build, and re-install libcrypto and libssl:
# cd lib/libcrypto
# make cleandir dependall
# make install
# cd ../../lib/libssl
# make cleandir dependall
# make install
