CVE-2016-2178 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
Upgrade Debian:8 openssl to version 1.0.1t-1+deb8u4 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openssl package and not the openssl package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
The dsa_sign_setup function in crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c in OpenSSL through 1.0.2h does not properly ensure the use of constant-time operations, which makes it easier for local users to discover a DSA private key via a timing side-channel attack.
