Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.702879 |
Category: | Debian Local Security Checks |
Title: | Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-2879-1) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libssh' package(s) announced via the DSA-2879-1 advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libssh' package(s) announced via the DSA-2879-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: It was discovered that libssh, a tiny C SSH library, did not reset the state of the PRNG after accepting a connection. A server mode application that forks itself to handle incoming connections could see its children sharing the same PRNG state, resulting in a cryptographic weakness and possibly the recovery of the private key. For the oldstable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 0.4.5-3+squeeze2. For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 0.5.4-1+deb7u1. For the testing distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in version 0.5.4-3. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 0.5.4-3. We recommend that you upgrade your libssh packages. Affected Software/OS: 'libssh' package(s) on Debian 6, Debian 7. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 1.9 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N |
