Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.50960 |
Category: | Red Hat Local Security Checks |
Title: | RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2003:386 |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2003:386. FreeRADIUS is an Internet authentication daemon, which implements the RADIUS protocol. It allows Network Access Servers (NAS boxes) to perform authentication for dial-up users. The rad_decode function in FreeRADIUS 0.9.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a short RADIUS string attribute with a tag, which causes memcpy to be called with a -1 length argument, as demonstrated using the Tunnel-Password attribute. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2003-0967 to this issue. Users of FreeRADIUS are advised to upgrade to these erratum packages containing FreeRADIUS 0.9.3 which is not vulnerable to these issues. Solution: Please note that this update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2003-386.html http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=freeradius-users&m=106947389449613 Risk factor : Medium CVSS Score: 5.0 |
