Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.120353
Category:Amazon Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Amazon Linux: Security Advisory (ALAS-2014-369)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'openssh' package(s) announced via the ALAS-2014-369 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'openssh' package(s) announced via the ALAS-2014-369 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
sshd in OpenSSH before 6.6 does not properly support wildcards on AcceptEnv lines in sshd_config, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended environment restrictions by using a substring located before a wildcard character.

The verify_host_key function in sshconnect.c in the client in OpenSSH 6.6 and earlier allows remote servers to trigger the skipping of SSHFP DNS RR checking by presenting an unacceptable HostCertificate.

Affected Software/OS:
'openssh' package(s) on Amazon Linux.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
5.8

CVSS Vector:
AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:N
