+ <background>
+ <p>Nettle is a cryptographic library that is designed to fit easily in almost any context: In cryptographic toolkits for object-oriented languages, such as C++, Python, or Pike, in applications like lsh or GnuPG, or even in kernel space.</p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Nettle. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.</p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A flaw was found in the way nettle&#39;s RSA decryption functions handled specially crafted ciphertext. An attacker could use this flaw to provide a manipulated ciphertext leading to application crash and denial of service.</p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All Nettle users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-libs/nettle-3.9.1"
+ </code>
