Fedora 33 : roca-detect (2021-acd448b558)

high Nessus Plugin ID 147943

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Fedora 33 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the FEDORA-2021-acd448b558 advisory.

- With the upgrade of python-cryptography in f33+, the PKCS7_get0_clients api was dropped. It has been replaced by a cleaner and easier api, which roca-detect now uses. The consequence was that PKCS7 keys would be silently ignored. To test, run $ roca-detect /usr/lib/python3.*/site- packages/roca/tests/data/pkcs701.p7s It should see 1 PKCS7 key. (FEDORA-2021-acd448b558)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected roca-detect package.
