+
+  *) Timing vulnerability in DSA signature generation
+
+     The OpenSSL DSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
+     timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
+     algorithm to recover the private key.
+
+     This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
+     (CVE-2018-0734)

+
+  *) Timing vulnerability in ECDSA signature generation
+
+     The OpenSSL ECDSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
+     timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
+     algorithm to recover the private key.
+
+     This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 25th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
+     (CVE-2018-0735)

   *) Fixed the issue that RAND_add()/RAND_seed() silently discards random input
      if its length exceeds 4096 bytes. The limit has been raised to a buffer size
