Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.57187 |
Category: | Ubuntu Local Security Checks |
Title: | Ubuntu USN-326-1 (heartbeat) |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing an update to heartbeat announced via advisory USN-326-1. A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases: Ubuntu 5.04 Ubuntu 5.10 Ubuntu 6.06 LTS This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu. Yan Rong Ge discovered that heartbeat did not set proper permissions for an allocated shared memory segment. A local attacker could exploit this to render the heartbeat service unavailable (Denial of Service). Solution: The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 5.04: heartbeat 1.2.3-3ubuntu1.2 Ubuntu 5.10: heartbeat 1.2.3-12ubuntu0.1 Ubuntu 6.06 LTS: heartbeat 1.2.4-2ubuntu0.1 In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes. https://secure1.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=USN-326-1 Risk factor : Medium CVSS Score: 2.1 |
