    Summary: Moderate: openssl security and bug fix update

    Details: OpenSSL is a toolkit that implements the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols, as well as a full-strength general-purpose cryptography library. Security Fix(es): * openssl: c_rehash script allows command injection (CVE-2022-1292) * openssl: Signer certificate verification returns inaccurate response when using OCSP_NOCHECKS (CVE-2022-1343) * openssl: OPENSSL_LH_flush() breaks reuse of memory (CVE-2022-1473) * openssl: the c_rehash script allows command injection (CVE-2022-2068) * openssl: AES OCB fails to encrypt some bytes (CVE-2022-2097) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section. Bug Fix(es): * openssl occasionally sends internal error to gnutls when using FFDHE (BZ#2080323) * openssl req defaults to 3DES (BZ#2085499) * OpenSSL accepts custom elliptic curve parameters when p is large [almalinux-9] (BZ#2085508) * OpenSSL mustn't work with ECDSA with explicit curve parameters in FIPS mode (BZ#2085521) * openssl s_server -groups secp256k1 in FIPS fails because X25519/X448 (BZ#2086554) * Converting FIPS power-on self test to KAT (BZ#2086866) * Small RSA keys work for some operations in FIPS mode (BZ#2091938) * FIPS provider doesn't block RSA encryption for key transport (BZ#2091977) * OpenSSL testsuite certificates expired (BZ#2095696) * [IBM 9.1 HW OPT] POWER10 performance enhancements for cryptography: OpenSSL (BZ#2103044) * [FIPS lab review] self-test (BZ#2112978) * [FIPS lab review] DH tuning (BZ#2115856) * [FIPS lab review] EC tuning (BZ#2115857) * [FIPS lab review] RSA tuning (BZ#2115858) * [FIPS lab review] RAND tuning (BZ#2115859) * [FIPS lab review] zeroization (BZ#2115861) * [FIPS lab review] HKDF limitations (BZ#2118388)
