Test ID:	1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.702781
Category:	Debian Local Security Checks
Title:	Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-2781-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'python-crypto' package(s) announced via the DSA-2781-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'python-crypto' package(s) announced via the DSA-2781-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: A cryptographic vulnerability was discovered in the pseudo random number generator in python-crypto. In some situations, a race condition could prevent the reseeding of the generator when multiple processes are forked from the same parent. This would lead it to generate identical output on all processes, which might leak sensitive values like cryptographic keys. For the oldstable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 2.1.0-2+squeeze2. For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 2.6-4+deb7u3. For the testing distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in version 2.6.1-2. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 2.6.1-1. We recommend that you upgrade your python-crypto packages. Affected Software/OS: 'python-crypto' package(s) on Debian 6. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 4.3 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
