[Solved] OpenSSL bug CVE-2014-0160; Hidden Service upgrade

Support
#1

Dear Patrick.

Are Workstation Servers without installed OpenSSL secure? I am working with 8 Release. So what we must do (Change) to forward continuing secure working? I read this on Tor Blog about Hidden Services

https://blog.torproject.org/blog/openssl-bug-cve-2014-0160

Hidden services: Tor hidden services might leak their long-term hidden service identity keys to their guard relays. Like the last big OpenSSL bug, this shouldn't allow an attacker to identify the location of the hidden service, but an attacker who knows the hidden service identity key can impersonate the hidden service. Best practice would be to move to a new hidden-service address at your convenience.

Means this all Servers compromised or only with OpenSSL, so the Question, should i do a new Hidden Address?

Dear Patrick!

Do the sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade!

Without OpenSSL or with updated OpenSSL it’s ok.

That’s what is suggested in Whonix News.

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and sudo service tor restart (or reboot)

Yes, you should create a new hidden service domain as well (after restarting Tor). I’ll add this to Whonix News. I also plan to blog about this.

Am I retarded or something, I don’t get the updated OpenSSL when running “sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgade”. On my host I’ve still got 1.0.1e and the way I understand it it is 1.0.1g that is safe so my questions are:

  1. Can I manually update it on whonix with: http://sandilands.info/sgordon/upgrade-latest-version-openssl-on-ubuntu to 1.0.1g
  2. Why didn’t I get the updated OpenSSL after update/upgrade commands? Is it my source lists that are fucked or am I doing something else wrong?

Thanks in advance

Looks like your sources.list and/or your host operating system is messed up. I do not recommend manually installing it - then you will miss verification of the update - or it will be difficult to verify. That energy should be rather put into fixing the updater.

No. Keys (hidden services) created with 1.0.1e-2+deb7u5 are okay.

#11

So when i understand yours right? I must create new Hidden Service Keys with 1.0.1e-2+deb7u6?

Have you already created a new Hidden Service key using 1.0.1e-2+deb7u5?

  • If yes, then no more change is required. The 1.0.1e-2+deb7u6 update, simply put, “isn’t that important” (see changelog).
  • If no, then yes, create a new HIdden Service key.
#13

Hallo dear Patrick!

I create new HiddenServiceKey after the patch that i get from update/upgrade from 1.0.1e-2+deb7u5. So, God bless, now i am secure and my work will be forwarding. Thank you for your Answering! Well, let me say thank you for the great Help and very good Support you gave here!

Best Regards!
