[Bug 1469653] Re: CVE-2014-0224 not fixed for python-openssl based servers

[Rob Meijer]

Also please note that the server code Tyler referenced to, as far as I
can determine,  imports 'ssl' from  the libpython2.7-minimal package.
This bug however seems to relate to the "python-openssl" package.

Title:
  CVE-2014-0224 not fixed for python-openssl based servers

Status in pyopenssl package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When creating a minimal https based server in python using 'from
  OpenSSL import SSL' on a fully patched Ubuntu 14.04 system,  the
  OpenSSL bug as reported in CVE-2014-0224 seems to persist for that
  server. A C++ implementation with the same functionality on the same
  system does not show such issues so it would appear that its specific
  to python-openssl .

  The existence of this bug can be validated by running a simple python
  based https server that uses the Python OpenSSL module on a public IP
  adress and using the web form as provided on
  https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/
