 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                         MDKSA-2006:166
 http://www.mandriva.com/security/
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Package : gnutls
 Date    : September 19, 2006
 Affected: 2006.0, Corporate 4.0
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Problem Description:
 
 verify.c in GnuTLS before 1.4.4, when using an RSA key with exponent 3,
 does not properly handle excess data in the digestAlgorithm.parameters
 field when generating a hash, which allows remote attackers to forge a
 PKCS #1 v1.5 signature that is signed by that RSA key and prevents
 GnuTLS from correctly verifying X.509 and other certificates that use
 PKCS, a variant of CVE-2006-4339.

 The provided packages have been patched to correct this issues.
