Jiaying Song d6f3ce1651 openssl: fix CVE-2023-50781
A flaw was found in m2crypto. This issue may allow a remote attacker to
decrypt captured messages in TLS servers that use RSA key exchanges,
which may lead to exposure of confidential or sensitive data.

The CVE-2023-50781 in M2Crypto is addressed by modifying OpenSSL because
M2Crypto relies on OpenSSL for its cryptographic operations.The issue
stems from OpenSSL’s RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 padding verification being
vulnerable to Bleichenbacher-type attacks.To mitigate this, OpenSSL
introduced an implicit rejection mechanism in the RSA PKCS#1 v1.5
padding.Therefore, resolving the vulnerability requires changes within
OpenSSL itself to ensure M2Crypto’s security.
