Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.841045 |
Category: | Ubuntu Local Security Checks |
Title: | Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-1477-1) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the 'apt' package(s) announced via the USN-1477-1 advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'apt' package(s) announced via the USN-1477-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Georgi Guninski discovered that APT did not properly validate imported keyrings via apt-key net-update. USN-1475-1 added additional verification for imported keyrings, but it was insufficient. If a remote attacker were able to perform a machine-in-the-middle attack, this flaw could potentially be used to install altered packages. This update corrects the issue by disabling the net-update option completely. A future update will re-enable the option with corrected verification. Affected Software/OS: 'apt' package(s) on Ubuntu 8.04, Ubuntu 10.04, Ubuntu 11.04, Ubuntu 11.10, Ubuntu 12.04. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 2.6 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N |
