PolarSSL 1.3.9 released [1]. From release notes: ... On the security front this release fixes a mistake in the negotiation introduced in PolarSSL 1.3.8. The mistake resulted in servers negotiating a weaker signature algorithm than available. In addition two remotely-triggerable memory leaks were found by the Codenomicon Defensics tool and fixed in this release. ... [1]: https://polarssl.org/tech-updates/releases/polarssl-1.3.9-released

I'm less sure about the two memory issues. These look like the fixes: https://github.com/polarssl/polarssl/commit/43c3b28ca6d22f51951e2bd563df039a9f4289ab https://github.com/polarssl/polarssl/commit/5d8618539f8e186c1b2c1b5a548d6f85936fe41f From a very brief look, "Fix memory leak while parsing some X.509 certs" looks like it would affect 1.2.11-1.fc20. For the "Fix memory leak with crafted ClientHello" issue, the ssl_parse_supported_elliptic_curves functions is missing from 1.2.11-1.fc20 (not sure if there is similar, affected code elsewhere with a different name though)
Lead Maintainer for PolarSSL here. The negotiation issue was only introduced in 1.3.8, so does not affect any older versions. Both the memory leaks also affect PolarSSL 1.3.2. For 1.2.11 I would expect it to be updated with the released 1.2.12, which contains a back-port of the relevant memory leak. Or at least the patched used from that release.
