CVE-2014-0076  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-310  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

There is no fixed version for OpenSSL.

Overview

OpenSSL is a SSL/TLS and Crypto toolkit. Deprecated in Mac OS and gone in iOS, this spec gives your project non-deprecated OpenSSL support.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cryptographic Issues. OpenSSL is vulnerable to side-channel timing attacks. These attacks are possible because the Montgomery ladder implementation doesn't run swap operations in constant time which makes it easier for local users to obtain ECDSA nonce values.
