1. Summary:

An update for gnutls and nettle is now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 8.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which
gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from
the CVE link(s) in the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream (v. 8) - aarch64, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux BaseOS (v. 8) - aarch64, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64

3. Description:

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). (BZ#1956783)

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)

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.
