Description

The AES-NI implementation of OpenSSL 1.0.1c does not properly compute the
length of an encrypted message when used with a TLS version 1.1 or above. This
leads to an integer underflow which can cause a DoS. The vulnerable function
aesni_cbc_hmac_sha1_cipher is only included in the 64-bit versions of OpenSSL.
This module has been tested successfully on Ubuntu 12.04 (64-bit) with the default
OpenSSL 1.0.1c package.
