gnutls-3.6.16-4.el8, nettle-3.4.1-7.el8

The gnutls packages provide the GNU Transport Layer Security (GnuTLS) library, which implements cryptographic algorithms and protocols such as SSL, TLS, and DTLS.

Nettle is a cryptographic library that is designed to fit easily in almost any context: In crypto toolkits for object-oriented languages, such as C++, Python, or Pike, in applications like LSH or GNUPG, or even in kernel space.

The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: gnutls (3.6.16).

Security Fix(es):

* nettle: Remote crash in RSA decryption via manipulated ciphertext (CVE-2021-3580)
* gnutls: Use after free in client key_share extension (CVE-2021-20231)
* gnutls: Use after free in client_send_params in lib/ext/pre_shared_key.c (CVE-2021-20232)

CVE-2021-20231
A flaw was found in gnutls. A use after free issue in client sending key_share extension may lead to memory corruption and other consequences.
CVE-2021-20232
A flaw was found in gnutls. A use after free issue in client_send_params in lib/ext/pre_shared_key.c may lead to memory corruption and other potential consequences.
CVE-2021-3580
A flaw was found in the way nettle's RSA decryption functions handled specially crafted ciphertext. An attacker could use this flaw to provide a manipulated ciphertext leading to application crash and denial of service.
