Checks for the remote SSH version Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment You are running a version of OpenSSH which is older than 3.7.1 Versions older than 3.7.1 are vulnerable to a flaw in the buffer management functions which might permit a possible hacker to execute arbitrary commands on this host. An exploit for this issue is rumored to exist. Note that several distribution patched this hole without changing the version number of OpenSSH. Since Nessus solely relied on the banner of the remote SSH server to perform this check, this might be a false positive. If you are running a RedHat host, make sure that the command : rpm -q openssh-server Returns : openssh-server-3.1p1-13 (RedHat 7.x) openssh-server-3.4p1-7 (RedHat 8.0) openssh-server-3.5p1-11 (RedHat 9) Solution : Upgrade to OpenSSH 3.7.1 See also : http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=openbsd-misc&m=106375452423794&w=2 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=openbsd-misc&m=106375456923804&w=2 Network Security Threat Level: High Networks Security ID: 8628 Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: This script is Copyright (C) 2003 Tenable Network Security |
