FreeBSD : sudo-rs -- Partial password reveal when password timeout occurs (c1ceaaea-c2e7-11f0-8372-98b78501ef2a)

low Nessus Plugin ID 275572

Language:

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the c1ceaaea-c2e7-11f0-8372-98b78501ef2a advisory.

Trifecta Tech Foundation reports:
When typing partial passwords but not pressing return for a long time, a password timeout can occur. When this happens, the keys pressed are replayed onto the console.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the FreeBSD security advisory.

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 packages.
