Red Hat Security Advisory
Synopsis: Low: openssh security and bug fix update
Advisory ID: RHSA-2007:0257-02
Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2007-0257.html
Issue date: 2007-05-01
Updated on: 2007-05-01
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Keywords: syslog buffer length IPv6 X11 forwarding
CVE Names: CVE-2005-2666
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Summary:
Updated openssh packages that fix a security issue and various bugs are now
available.
This update has been rated as having low security impact by the Red Hat
Security Response Team.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 4 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop version 4 - i386, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 4 - i386, ia64, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 4 - i386, ia64, x86_64
3. Problem description:
OpenSSH is OpenBSD's SSH (Secure SHell) protocol implementation. This
package includes the core files necessary for both the OpenSSH client and
server.
OpenSSH stores hostnames, IP addresses, and keys in plaintext in the
known_hosts file. A local attacker that has already compromised a user's
SSH account could use this information to generate a list of additional
targets that are likely to have the same password or key. (CVE-2005-2666)
The following bugs have also been fixed in this update:
* The ssh client could abort the running connection when the server
application generated a large output at once.
* When 'X11UseLocalhost' option was set to 'no' on systems with IPv6
networking enabled, the X11 forwarding socket listened only for IPv6
connections.
* When the privilege separation was enabled in /etc/ssh/sshd_config, some
log messages in the system log were duplicated and also had timestamps from
an incorrect timezone.
All users of openssh should upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain backported patches to correct these issues.
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied. Use Red Hat
Network to download and update your packages. To launch the Red Hat
Update Agent, use the following command:
up2date
For information on how to install packages manually, refer to the
following Web page for the System Administration or Customization
guide specific to your system:
