Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.51544
Category:Conectiva Local Security Checks
Title:Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2002:541
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory CLA-2002:541.

mod_ssl[1] is a module for the Apache[2] web server which provides
cryptography support. This module is included by default in the
Apache package distributed with Conectiva Linux.

There is a cross site cripting vulnerability[3][4][5] in the mod_ssl
module. The server name field returned to the client was not being
filtered, which could lead to cross site scripting attacks if the
UseCanonicalName option is turned off (which is not the default)
and wildcard DNS is in use.


Solution:
The apt tool can be used to perform RPM package upgrades
by running 'apt-get update' followed by 'apt-get upgrade'
