high Nessus Plugin ID 108543

Synopsis

The remote web server is affected by multiple security vulnerabilities.

Description

According to its self-reported version, the Webmin install hosted on the remote host is between versions 0.21 and 1.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- Versions 0.21 through 1.00 use the same SSL key for all installations, which may allow attackers to eavesdrop on traffic. (CVE-2002-1947)

- A remote code execution vulnerability via remote_foregin_require and remote_foreign_call requests.
(CVE-2002-2360)

Solution

Upgrade to Webmin 1.010 or later.
