New Multiple vulnerabilities in OpenSSL.
Connectikpeople.co recalls that OpenSSL has released updates addressing
multiple vulnerabilities, one of which allows a remote attacker to downgrade
vulnerable TLS connections to 512-bit export-grade cryptography; an attack
known as Logjam (CVE-2015-4000). Exploitation of some of these vulnerabilities could allow the attacker
to read and modify data passed over the connection.
Updates
