Public bug reported:

In OpenSSL 1.0.1f on Ubuntu 14.04, there's a regression in using DTLS,
caused by a backported bugfix for CVE-2014-3571.

This particular bugfix (debian/patches/CVE-2014-3571-1.patch,
corresponding to
https://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git;a=commitdiff;h=8d7aab986b499f34d9e1bc58fbfd77f05c38116e,
originally included upstream in OpenSSL 1.0.1k) caused a regression in
using DTLS - see https://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=3657.

This regression was fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.1m via this commit:
https://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git;a=commitdiff;h=1895583

This left OpenSSL 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l with the regression, plus Ubuntu
14.04 which backported the first fix but not the later one.

In Debian, their patches for 1.0.1e contain both fixes:
https://sources.debian.net/src/openssl/1.0.1e-2%2Bdeb7u20/debian/patches/0109-Fix-crash-in-dtls1_get_record-whilst-in-the-listen-s.patch/
https://sources.debian.net/src/openssl/1.0.1e-2%2Bdeb7u20/debian/patches/0001-Make-DTLS-always-act-as-if-read_ahead-is-set.-The-ac.patch/

Please backport the second fix to the version of 1.0.1f that you
maintain for 14.04 LTS.
