Summary

OpenSSL 0.9.4 and OpenSSH for FreeBSD do not properly check for the existence of the /dev/random or /dev/urandom devices, which are absent on FreeBSD Alpha systems, which causes them to produce weak keys which may be more easily broken.

    descriptionThe remote service seems to be using a version of OpenSSL that is older than 0.9.6e or 0.9.7-beta3. Such versions are affected by a buffer overflow that may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the remote host with the privileges of the application itself.

    descriptionAccording to its banner, the version of OpenSSL running on the remote host is less than 0.9.5a. On a FreeBSD system running on the Alpha architecture, versions earlier than that may not use the /dev/random and /dev/urandom devices to provide a strong source of cryptographic entropy, which could lead to the generation of keys with weak cryptographic strength.

    descriptionAccording to its banner, the version of OpenSSH running on the remote host is less than 2.1.0. On a FreeBSD system running on the Alpha architecture, versions earlier than that may not use the /dev/random and /dev/urandom devices to provide a strong source of cryptographic entropy, which could lead to the generation of keys with weak cryptographic strength.
