Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.63897 |
Category: | Ubuntu Local Security Checks |
Title: | Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-762-1) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the 'apt' package(s) announced via the USN-762-1 advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'apt' package(s) announced via the USN-762-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Alexandre Martani discovered that the APT daily cron script did not check the return code of the date command. If a machine is configured for automatic updates and is in a time zone where DST occurs at midnight, under certain circumstances automatic updates might not be applied and could become permanently disabled. (CVE-2009-1300) Michael Casadevall discovered that APT did not properly verify repositories signed with a revoked or expired key. If a repository were signed with only an expired or revoked key and the signature was otherwise valid, APT would consider the repository valid. ([link moved to references]) Affected Software/OS: 'apt' package(s) on Ubuntu 6.06, Ubuntu 8.04, Ubuntu 8.10. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 10.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
