Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.60133 |
Category: | Debian Local Security Checks |
Title: | Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-1456-1) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'fail2ban' package(s) announced via the DSA-1456-1 advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'fail2ban' package(s) announced via the DSA-1456-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Daniel B. Cid discovered that fail2ban, a tool to block IP addresses that cause login failures, is too liberal about parsing SSH log files, allowing an attacker to block any IP address. The old stable distribution (sarge) doesn't contain fail2ban. For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version 0.7.5-2etch1. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 0.8.0-4. We recommend that you upgrade your fail2ban package. Affected Software/OS: 'fail2ban' package(s) on Debian 4. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 6.8 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
