    Summary: openssl vulnerabilities

    Details: USN-5402-1 fixed several vulnerabilities in OpenSSL. This update provides the corresponding update for Ubuntu 16.04 ESM. Original advisory details: Elison Niven discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled the c_rehash script. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary commands when c_rehash is run. (CVE-2022-1292) Aliaksei Levin discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled resources when decoding certificates and keys. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to consume resources, leading to a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. (CVE-2022-1473)
