Debian DLA-282-1 : lighttpd security update (POODLE)

low Nessus Plugin ID 84991

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

This update allows to disable SSLv3 in lighttpd in order to protect against the POODLE attack. SSLv3 is now disabled by default and can be reenabled (if needed) using the ssl.use-sslv3 option.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
