Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.891589
Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-1589-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'keepalived' package(s) announced via the DLA-1589-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'keepalived' package(s) announced via the DLA-1589-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
keepalived has a heap-based buffer overflow when parsing HTTP status codes resulting in DoS or possibly unspecified other impact, because extract_status_code in lib/html.c has no validation of the status code and instead writes an unlimited amount of data to the heap.

For Debian 8 Jessie, this problem has been fixed in version 1:1.2.13-1+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your keepalived packages.
