Red Hat Product Errata RHSA-2005:476 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Moderate: openssl security update 2005-06-01 04:00:00 UTC

Description Mark J. Cox 2004-10-19 09:46:55 UTC 
On September 10th 2004, Trustix shared some temporary file
vulnerabilities with vendor-sec.  After some refinement these were
made public on Sep30.  These are minor issues (impact: LOW) and
therefore should be fixed in future updates, but don't deserve their
own security advisory.

Temporary file vulnerability in der_chop script.  Patch attached. 
However der_chop isn't a useful script and is deprecated.  Removing
der_chop script is a valid solution to this issue.

                Affects: RHEL3
                Affects: RHEL2.1
