Title: | openSUSE: Security Advisory for NRPE (openSUSE-SU-2013:0621-1) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the 'NRPE'; package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'NRPE' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. Vulnerability Insight: NRPE (the Nagios Remote Plug-In Executor) allows the passing of $() to plugins/scripts which, if run under bash, will execute that shell command under a subprocess and pass the output as a parameter to the called script. Using this, it is possible to get called scripts, such as check_http, to execute arbitrary commands under the uid that NRPE/nagios is running as (typically, 'nagios'). With this update NRPE will deny remote requests containing a bash command substitution. Affected Software/OS: NRPE on openSUSE 12.2, openSUSE 12.1 Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 7.5 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
