Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2015.0116 |
Category: | Mageia Linux Local Security Checks |
Title: | Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2015-0116) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the 'setup' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2015-0116 advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'setup' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2015-0116 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: An issue has been identified in Mageia 4's setup package where the /etc/shadow and /etc/gshadow files containing password hashes were created with incorrect permissions, making them world-readable (mga#14516). This update fixes this issue by enforcing that those files are owned by the root user and shadow group, and are only readable by those two entities. Note that this issue only affected new Mageia 4 installations. Systems that were updated from previous Mageia versions were not affected. UPDATE: This update has since been removed as it still created rpmnew files and allowed users to unintentionally remove existing users by applying it. A better fix has since been found and will be pushed separately (mga#15644) Affected Software/OS: 'setup' package(s) on Mageia 4. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 5.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N |
