Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.703299
Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-3299-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'stunnel4' package(s) announced via the DSA-3299-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'stunnel4' package(s) announced via the DSA-3299-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Johan Olofsson discovered an authentication bypass vulnerability in Stunnel, a program designed to work as an universal SSL tunnel for network daemons. When Stunnel in server mode is used with the redirect option and certificate-based authentication is enabled with verify = 2 or higher, then only the initial connection is redirected to the hosts specified with redirect. This allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication.

For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in version 3:5.06-2+deb8u1.

For the testing distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in version 3:5.18-1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 3:5.18-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your stunnel4 packages.

Affected Software/OS:
'stunnel4' package(s) on Debian 8.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
