CBL Mariner 2.0 Security Update: openssh (CVE-2007-2768)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 201809

Synopsis

The remote CBL Mariner host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of openssh installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2007-2768 advisory.

- OpenSSH, when using OPIE (One-Time Passwords in Everything) for PAM, allows remote attackers to determine the existence of certain user accounts, which displays a different response if the user account exists and is configured to use one-time passwords (OTP), a similar issue to CVE-2007-2243. (CVE-2007-2768)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
