Description

The Single Sign On Client (ubuntu-sso-client) for Ubuntu 11.04 and 11.10 does not properly validate SSL certificates when using HTTPS, which allows remote attackers to spoof a server and modify or read sensitive data via a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack.

Solution(s)

  • ubuntu-upgrade-ubuntu-sso-client

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
