Summary
DistCC is prone to a remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability.
Impact
DistCC by default trusts its clients completely that in turn could allow a malicious client to
execute arbitrary commands on the server.
Solution:
Solution type: VendorFix
Vendor updates are available. Please see the references for more information.
For more information about DistCC's security see the references.
Vulnerability Insight
DistCC 2.x, as used in XCode 1.5 and others, when not congured to restrict access to the server
port, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via compilation jobs, which are
executed by the server without authorization checks.

Summary
It was possible to login into the remote PostgreSQL as user postgres using weak credentials.
Solution:
Solution type: Mitigation
Change the password as soon as possible.
Summary
OpenSSL is prone to security-bypass vulnerability.
Impact
Successfully exploiting this issue may allow attackers to obtain sensitive information by conduct-
ing a man-in-the-middle attack. This may lead to other attacks.
Solution:
Solution type: VendorFix
Updates are available. Please see the references for more information.
Aected Software/OS
OpenSSL before 0.9.8za, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0m and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1h.
Vulnerability Insight
OpenSSL does not properly restrict processing of ChangeCipherSpec messages, which allows
man-in-the-middle attackers to trigger use of a zero-length master key in certain OpenSSL-to-
OpenSSL communications, and consequently hijack sessions or obtain sensitive information, via
a crafted TLS handshake, aka the 'CCS Injection' vulnerability.

Summary
Systems using Distributed Ruby (dRuby/DRb), which is available in Ruby versions 1.6 and later,
may permit unauthorized systems to execute distributed commands.
Impact
By default, Distributed Ruby does not impose restrictions on allowed hosts or set the $SAFE
environment variable to prevent privileged activities. If other controls are not in place, especially
if the Distributed Ruby process runs with elevated privileges, an attacker could execute arbitrary
system commands or Ruby scripts on the Distributed Ruby server. An attacker may need to
know only the URI of the listening Distributed Ruby server to submit Ruby commands.
. . . continues on next page . . .
2 RESULTS PER HOST 15
Solution:
Solution type: Mitigation
Administrators of environments that rely on Distributed Ruby should ensure that appropriate
controls are in place. Code-level controls may include:
- Implementing taint on untrusted input
- Setting $SAFE levels appropriately (>=2 is recommended if untrusted hosts are allowed to
submit Ruby commands, and >=3 may be appropriate)
- Including drb/acl.rb to set ACLEntry to restrict access to trusted hosts

Summary
PHP is prone to an information-disclosure vulnerability.
Impact
Exploiting this issue allows remote attackers to view the source code of les in the context of the
server process. This may allow the attacker to obtain sensitive information and to run arbitrary
PHP code on the aected computer. Other attacks are also possible.
Solution:
Solution type: VendorFix
PHP has released version 5.4.3 and 5.3.13 to address this vulnerability. PHP is recommending
that users upgrade to the latest version of PHP.
Vulnerability Insight
When PHP is used in a CGI-based setup (such as Apache's mod_cgid), the php-cgi receives
a processed query string parameter as command line arguments which allows command-line
switches, such as -s, -d or -c to be passed to the php-cgi binary, which can be exploited to
disclose source code and obtain arbitrary code execution.

Summary
This remote host is running a rexec service.
Solution:
Solution type: Mitigation
Disable the rexec service and use alternatives like SSH instead.
Vulnerability Insight
rexec (remote execution client for an exec server) has the same kind of functionality that rsh
has: you can execute shell commands on a remote computer.
The main dierence is that rexec authenticate by reading the username and password *unen-
crypted* from the socket.

Try to log in with given passwords via VNC protocol.
Solution:
Solution type: Mitigation
Change the password to something hard to guess or enable password protection at all.
Vulnerability Insight
This script tries to authenticate to a VNC server with the passwords set in the password prefer-
ence. It will also test and report if no authentication / password is required at all.
Note: Some VNC servers have a blacklisting scheme that blocks IP addresses after ve unsuc-
cessful connection attempts for a period of time. The script will abort the brute force attack if
it encounters that it gets blocked.

Vulnerability Insight
The aw exists because the remote SSL/TLS service does not properly restrict client-initiated
renegotiation within the SSL and TLS protocols.
Note: The referenced CVEs are aecting OpenSSL and Mozilla Network Security Services (NSS)
but both are in a DISPUTED state with the following rationale:

Summary
This routine reports all Weak SSL/TLS cipher suites accepted by a service.
NOTE: No severity for SMTP services with 'Opportunistic TLS' and weak cipher suites on port
25/tcp is reported. If too strong cipher suites are congured for this service the alternative would
be to fall back to an even more insecure cleartext communication.
Solution:
Solution type: Mitigation
The conguration of this services should be changed so that it does not accept the listed weak
cipher suites anymore.
Please see the references for more resources supporting you with this task.
Vulnerability Insight
These rules are applied for the evaluation of the cryptographic strength:
- RC4 is considered to be weak (CVE-2013-2566, CVE-2015-2808)
- Ciphers using 64 bit or less are considered to be vulnerable to brute force methods and therefore
considered as weak (CVE-2015-4000)
- 1024 bit RSA authentication is considered to be insecure and therefore as weak
- Any cipher considered to be secure for only the next 10 years is considered as medium
- Any other cipher is considered as strong

Summary
The remote service is using a SSL/TLS certicate in the certicate chain that has been signed
using a cryptographically weak hashing algorithm.
Solution:
Solution type: Mitigation
Servers that use SSL/TLS certicates signed with a weak SHA-1, MD5, MD4 or MD2 hashing
algorithm will need to obtain new SHA-2 signed SSL/TLS certicates to avoid web browser
SSL/TLS certicate warnings.
Vulnerability Insight
The following hashing algorithms used for signing SSL/TLS certicates are considered crypto-
graphically weak and not secure enough for ongoing use:
- Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA-1)

Summary
The SSL/TLS service uses Die-Hellman groups with insucient strength (key size < 2048).
Impact
An attacker might be able to decrypt the SSL/TLS communication oine.
Solution:
Solution type: Workaround
Deploy (Ephemeral) Elliptic-Curve Die-Hellman (ECDHE) or use a 2048-bit or stronger Die-
Hellman group (see the references).
For Apache Web Servers: Beginning with version 2.4.7, mod_ssl will use DH parameters which
include primes with lengths of more than 1024 bits.
Vulnerability Insight
The Die-Hellman group are some big numbers that are used as base for the DH computations.
They can be, and often are, xed. The security of the nal secret depends on the size of these
parameters. It was found that 512 and 768 bits to be weak, 1024 bits to be breakable by really
powerful attackers like governments.

Summary
This host is accepting 'RSA_EXPORT' cipher suites and is prone to man in the middle attack.
Impact
Successful exploitation will allow remote attacker to downgrade the security of a session to use
'RSA_EXPORT' cipher suites, which are signicantly weaker than non-export cipher suites.
This may allow a man-in-the-middle attacker to more easily break the encryption and monitor
or tamper with the encrypted stream.
Solution:
Solution type: VendorFix
- Remove support for 'RSA_EXPORT' cipher suites from the service.
- If running OpenSSL update to version 0.9.8zd or 1.0.0p or 1.0.1k or later.
Aected Software/OS
- Hosts accepting 'RSA_EXPORT' cipher suites
- OpenSSL version before 0.9.8zd, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0p, and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1k.
Vulnerability Insight
Flaw is due to improper handling RSA temporary keys in a non-export RSA key exchange cipher
suite.

Solution:
Solution type: Mitigation
Servers that use SSL/TLS certicates signed with a weak SHA-1, MD5, MD4 or MD2 hashing
algorithm will need to obtain new SHA-2 signed SSL/TLS certicates to avoid web browser
SSL/TLS certicate warnings.
Vulnerability Insight
The following hashing algorithms used for signing SSL/TLS certicates are considered crypto-
graphically weak and not secure enough for ongoing use:
- Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA-1)
- Message Digest 5 (MD5)
- Message Digest 4 (MD4)
- Message Digest 2 (MD2)
Beginning as late as January 2017 and as early as June 2016, browser developers such as Microsoft
and Google will begin warning users when visiting web sites that use SHA-1 signed Secure Socket
Layer (SSL) certicates.
NOTE: The script preference allows to set one or more custom SHA-1 ngerprints of CA certi-
cates which are trusted by this routine. The ngerprints needs to be passed comma-separated
and case-insensitive:
Fingerprint1
or
ngerprint1, Fingerprint2

Vulnerability Insight
- 1024-bit MODP group / prime KEX algorithms:
Millions of HTTPS, SSH, and VPN servers all use the same prime numbers for Die-Hellman
key exchange. Practitioners believed this was safe as long as new key exchange messages were
generated for every connection. However, the rst step in the number eld sieve-the most ecient
algorithm for breaking a Die-Hellman connection-is dependent only on this prime.
A nation-state can break a 1024-bit prime.

The remote SSH server is congured to allow / support weak encryption algorithm(s).
Solution:
Solution type: Mitigation
Disable the reported weak encryption algorithm(s).
Vulnerability Insight
- The 'arcfour' cipher is the Arcfour stream cipher with 128-bit keys. The Arcfour cipher is
believed to be compatible with the RC4 cipher [SCHNEIER]. Arcfour (and RC4) has problems
with weak keys, and should not be used anymore.
- The 'none' algorithm species that no encryption is to be done. Note that this method provides
no condentiality protection, and it is NOT RECOMMENDED to use it.
- A vulnerability exists in SSH messages that employ CBC mode that may allow an attacker to
recover plaintext from a block of ciphertext.

Reports if the remote FTP Server allows anonymous logins.
Impact
Based on the les accessible via this anonymous FTP login and the permissions of this account
an attacker might be able to:
- gain access to sensitive les
- upload or delete les.
Solution:
Solution type: Mitigation
If you do not want to share les, you should disable anonymous logins.
Vulnerability Insight
A host that provides an FTP service may additionally provide Anonymous FTP access as well.
Under this arrangement, users do not strictly need an account on the host. Instead the user
typically enters 'anonymous' or 'ftp' when prompted for username. Although users are commonly
asked to send their email address as their password, little to no verication is actually performed
on the supplied data.
Remark: NIST don't see 'conguration issues' as software aws so the referenced CVE has a
severity of 0.0. The severity of this VT has been raised by Greenbone to still report a conguration
issue on the target.

Vulnerability Insight
The jQuery(strInput) function does not dierentiate selectors from HTML in a reliable fashion.
In vulnerable versions, jQuery determined whether the input was HTML by looking for the '<'
character anywhere in the string, giving attackers more exibility when attempting to construct
a malicious payload. In xed versions, jQuery only deems the input to be HTML if it explic-
itly starts with the '<' character, limiting exploitability only to attackers who can control the
beginning of a string, which is far less common.

[ return to 192.168.1.105 ]
Summary
The remote host responded to an ICMP timestamp request.
Solution:
Solution type: Mitigation
Various mitigations are possible:
- Disable the support for ICMP timestamp on the remote host completely
- Protect the remote host by a rewall, and block ICMP packets passing through the rewall in
either direction (either completely or only for untrusted networks)
Vulnerability Insight
The Timestamp Reply is an ICMP message which replies to a Timestamp message. It consists of
the originating timestamp sent by the sender of the Timestamp as well as a receive timestamp and
a transmit timestamp. This information could theoretically be used to exploit weak time-based
random number generators in other services.
