Red Hat Security Advisory 2017-1860-01 - Libtasn1 is a library that provides Abstract Syntax Notation One parsing and structures management, and Distinguished Encoding Rules encoding and decoding functions. The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: libtasn1. Security Fix: A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way the libtasn1 library decoded certain DER-encoded inputs. A specially crafted DER-encoded input could cause an application using libtasn1 to perform an invalid read, causing the application to crash.

3. Description:
Libtasn1 is a library that provides Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1, as
specified by the X.680 ITU-T recommendation) parsing and structures
management, and Distinguished Encoding Rules (DER, as per X.690) encoding
and decoding functions.
The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version:
libtasn1 (4.10). (BZ#1360639)
Security Fix(es):
* A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way the libtasn1
library decoded certain DER-encoded inputs. A specially crafted DER-encoded
input could cause an application using libtasn1 to perform an invalid read,
causing the application to crash. (CVE-2015-3622)
* A stack-based buffer overflow was found in the way libtasn1 decoded
certain DER encoded data. An attacker could use this flaw to crash an
application using the libtasn1 library. (CVE-2015-2806)
Additional Changes:

Enterprise Linux 7.4 Release Notes linked from the References section.
