Moderate: gnutls (SL5, SL6)

Synopsis: Moderate: gnutls security update
Issue Date: 2013-03-04
CVE Numbers: CVE-2013-1619

It was discovered that GnuTLS leaked timing information when decrypting
TLS/SSL protocol encrypted records when CBC-mode cipher suites were used.
A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to retrieve plain text from
the encrypted packets by using a TLS/SSL server as a padding oracle.
(CVE-2013-1619)

For the update to take effect, all applications linked to the GnuTLS
library must be restarted, or the system rebooted.
