Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 security vulnerability.
1) Cryptographic issues (CVE-ID: CVE-2013-3704)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to manipulate data.
The RPM GPG key import and handling feature in libzypp 12.15.0 and earlier reports a different key fingerprint than the one used to sign a repository when multiple key blobs are used, which might allow remote attackers to trick users into believing that the repository was signed by a more-trustworthy key.
Remediation
Install update from vendor's website.
