Description Huzaifa S. Sidhpurwala 2015-12-04 04:12:40 UTC 
The following was reported by OpenSSL upstream:

If PSK identity hints are received by a multi-threaded client then the values are wrongly updated in the parent SSL_CTX structure. This can
result in a race condition potentially leading to a double free of the identify hint data.

This issue was fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2d and 1.0.1p but has not been previously listed in an OpenSSL security advisory. This issue also affects OpenSSL 1.0.0 and has not been previously fixed in an OpenSSL 1.0.0 release.

OpenSSL 1.0.2 users should upgrade to 1.0.2d
OpenSSL 1.0.1 users should upgrade to 1.0.1p
OpenSSL 1.0.0 users should upgrade to 1.0.0t

The fix for this issue can be identified in the OpenSSL git repository by commit ids 3c66a669dfc7 (1.0.2), d6be3124f228 (1.0.1) and 1392c238657e (1.0.0).

The fix was developed by Dr. Stephen Henson of the OpenSSL development team.
