Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.705307
Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-5307-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libcommons-net-java' package(s) announced via the DSA-5307-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libcommons-net-java' package(s) announced via the DSA-5307-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
ZeddYu Lu discovered that the FTP client of Apache Commons Net, a Java client API for basic Internet protocols, trusts the host from PASV response by default. A malicious server can redirect the Commons Net code to use a different host, but the user has to connect to the malicious server in the first place. This may lead to leakage of information about services running on the private network of the client.

For the stable distribution (bullseye), this problem has been fixed in version 3.6-1+deb11u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libcommons-net-java packages.

For the detailed security status of libcommons-net-java please refer to its security tracker page at: [link moved to references]

Affected Software/OS:
'libcommons-net-java' package(s) on Debian 11.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
