Package        : bouncycastle
CVE ID         : CVE-2015-7940
Debian Bug     : 802671

Tibor Jager, Jörg Schwenk, and Juraj Somorovsky, from Horst Görtz Institute for IT Security, published a paper in ESORICS 2015 where they describe an invalid curve attack in Bouncy Castle Crypto, a Java library for cryptography. An attacker is able to recover private Elliptic Curve keys from different applications, for example, TLS servers.

For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 1.44+dfsg-3.1+deb7u1.
