Synopsis
perl-Net-SSLeay enhancement update
Type/Severity
Product Enhancement Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated perl-Net-SSLeay packages that add one enhancement are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The perl-Net-SSLeay packages offer high-level convenience functions for accessing web pages on SSL servers, an sslcat() function for writing custom clients, and provides access to the SSL API of the OpenSSL library, which enables users to write custom servers or clients for more complicated applications.
This update adds the following enhancement:
- The Perl Net:SSLeay module has been updated to support explicit specification of the TLS protocol version, which can be used for improving security. To restrict TLS version to 1.1 or 1.2, set the "Net::SSLeay::ssl_version" variable to '11' or '12' respectively. (BZ#1375183)
Users of perl-Net-SSLeay are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which add this enhancement.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
