Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2013.0242
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2013-0242)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'filezilla, putty' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2013-0242 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'filezilla, putty' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2013-0242 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
PuTTY versions 0.62 and earlier - as well as all software that
integrates these versions of PuTTY - are vulnerable to an integer
overflow leading to heap overflow during the SSH handshake before
authentication, caused by improper bounds checking of the length
parameter received from the SSH server. This allows remote attackers
to cause denial of service, and may have more severe impact on the
operation of software that uses PuTTY code (CVE-2013-4852).

PuTTY versions 0.62 and earlier - as well as all software that
integrates these versions of PuTTY - are vulnerable to a heap-corrupting
buffer underrun bug in the modmul function which performs modular
multiplication (CVE-2013-4206).

PuTTY versions 0.62 and earlier - as well as all software that
integrates these versions of PuTTY - are vulnerable to a buffer overflow
vulnerability in the calculation of modular inverses when verifying a
DSA signature (CVE-2013-4207).

PuTTY versions 0.62 and earlier - as well as all software that
integrates these versions of PuTTY - are vulnerable to private keys left
in memory after being used by PuTTY tools (CVE-2013-4208).

Affected Software/OS:
'filezilla, putty' package(s) on Mageia 2, Mageia 3.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
