Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.53884
Category:Slackware Local Security Checks
Title:Slackware: Security Advisory (SSA:2003-260-01)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'OpenSSH' package(s) announced via the SSA:2003-260-01 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'OpenSSH' package(s) announced via the SSA:2003-260-01 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Upgraded OpenSSH 3.7.1p1 packages are available for Slackware
8.1, 9.0 and -current. These fix additional buffer management
errors that were not corrected in the recent 3.7p1 release.
The possibility exists that these errors could allow a remote
exploit, so we recommend all sites running OpenSSH upgrade to
the new OpenSSH package immediately.


Here are the details from the Slackware 9.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
Wed Sep 17 01:25:22 PDT 2003
patches/packages/openssh-3.7.1p1-i386-1.tgz: Upgraded to openssh-3.7.1p1.
The OpenSSH advisory was updated ([link moved to references])
and now says that you need at least version 3.7.1, which fixes some
more buffer problems like those fixed by 3.7.
(* Security fix *)
+--------------------------+

Affected Software/OS:
'OpenSSH' package(s) on Slackware 8.1, Slackware 9.0, Slackware current.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
5.0
