Hi

Some days ago new GnuTLS version were released for GNUTLS-SA-2016-3
(OCSP validation issue):

Stefan Bühler discovered an issue that affects validation of
certificates using OCSP responses, which can falsely report a
certificate as valid under certain circumstances. That issue affects
gnutls 3.3.24, 3.4.14, 3.5.3 and previous versions. Write-up[0] by
Stefan Bühler
Recommendation: Upgrade to GnuTLS versions 3.4.15, 3.5.4 or apply the
patch referenced in the mail above.

Upstream fix is at [1]. This is as well tracked in Red Hat's bugzilla
at [2].

Could you please assign a CVE for this issue?

Regards,
Salvatore
