Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2021.0380
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2021-0380)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'filezilla, libfilezilla' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0380 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'filezilla, libfilezilla' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0380 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
filezilla embeds a PuTTY client that was vulnerable:
PuTTY 0.68 through 0.73 has an Observable Discrepancy leading to an
information leak in the algorithm negotiation. This allows man-in-the-middle
attackers to target initial connection attempts (where no host key for the
server has been cached by the client) (CVE-2020-14002).

The filezilla packages are updated to fix this issue to 3.55.0 version among
other bugfixes since 3.51.0 we shipped in Mageia 8. See upstream release notes
for more information.

Affected Software/OS:
'filezilla, libfilezilla' package(s) on Mageia 8.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
4.3
