2025-04-21 09:15 AEST by Arthur Barrett - We currently ship OpenSSL 3.0.15 with CVS Suite/CVSNT.
There has been a new release of OpenSSL - 3.0.16 on 11 Feb 2025:
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/openssl-3.0/CHANGES.md
There are two low impact CVE's addressed:
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/openssl-3.0/CHANGES.md
Fixed timing side-channel in ECDSA signature computation.
There is a timing signal of around 300 nanoseconds when the top word of the inverted ECDSA nonce value is
zero. This can happen with significant probability only for some of the supported elliptic curves. In particular
the NIST P-521 curve is affected. To be able to measure this leak, the attacker process must either be located
in the same physical computer or must have a very fast network connection with low latency.
(CVE-2024-13176)
https://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html#CVE-2024-13176
Fixed possible OOB memory access with invalid low-level GF(2^m) elliptic curve parameters.
Use of the low-level GF(2^m) elliptic curve APIs with untrusted explicit values for the field polynomial can
lead to out-of-bounds memory reads or writes. Applications working with "exotic" explicit binary (GF(2^m))
curve parameters, that make it possible to represent invalid field polynomials with a zero constant term, via
the above or similar APIs, may terminate abruptly as a result of reading or writing outside of array bounds.
Remote code execution cannot easily be ruled out.
