Description
The vulnerability allows a remote to cause buffer over-read on the target system.

The weakness exists due to overread in applications using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. The vulnerability leads to arbitrary stack data return to the buffer.

Successful exploitation of the weakness results in buffer over-read on the vulnerable system.

Mitigation
Update 1.0.1 to 1.0.1t.
Update 1.0.2 to 1.0.2h.
