Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.1.2.2016.601
Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-601-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'quagga' package(s) announced via the DLA-601-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'quagga' package(s) announced via the DLA-601-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
The quagga package installs world readable sensitive files in /etc/quagga, and might be subject to denial of service because of lacking packet size checks.

CVE-2016-4036

The quagga package before 0.99.23-2.6.1 uses weak permissions for /etc/quagga, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading files in the directory.

CVE-2016-4049

The bgp_dump_routes_func function in bgpd/bgp_dump.c in Quagga does not perform size checks when dumping data, which might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon crash) via a large BGP packet.

For Debian 7 Wheezy, these problems have been fixed in version 0.99.22.4-1+wheezy3.

We recommend that you upgrade your quagga packages.
