OpenSSL Multiple Denial of Service Vulnerabilities

OpenSSL is prone to multiple denial-of-service vulnerabilities.

Attackers can leverage these issues to cause a client or server application to crash. Successful exploits will deny service to legitimate users.

OpenSSL 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g are reported vulnerable. Other versions may be affected as well.
