NASL family Fedora Local Security Checks NASL id FEDORA_2005-860.NASL description This security update fixes CVE-2005-2797 and CVE-2005-2798 and resolves a problem with X forwarding binding only on IPv6 address on certain circumstances. As it is an upgrade to a newer upstream release there is a small change in interoperability with ssh clients older than 3.5p1 if they are configured so they insist on compression. If interoperability with such clients is required, the last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 19732 published 2005-09-17 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2005-2019 Tenable Network Security, Inc. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/19732 title Fedora Core 4 : openssh-4.2p1-fc4.1 (2005-860)
