In an effort to maintain a strong security stance and address all known regressions, this update deprecates X.509 validation chains using MD2 and MD5 signatures. To accomodate sites which must still use a deprected RSA-MD5 certificate, GnuTLS has been updated to stop looking when it has found a trusted intermediary certificate. This new handling of intermediary certificates is in accordance with other SSL implementations.

Wesley Miaw discovered that when zlib is enabled, libcurl does not properly restrict the amount of callback data sent to an application that requests automatic decompression. This might allow an attacker to cause a denial of service via an application crash or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privilege of the application. This issue only affected Ubuntu 8.04 LTS and Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. USN 818-1 fixed an issue with curl�s handling of SSL certificates with zero bytes in the Common Name. Due to a packaging error, the fix for this issue was not being applied during the build. This issue only affected Ubuntu 8.04 LTS. We apologize for the error.
