Aug 10, 2010I have Ubuntu 10.04 and I used my ssh to connect to a webserver. This is the version that I have installed.
Quote:
OpenSSH_5.3p1 Debian-3ubuntu4, OpenSSL 0.9.8k 25 Mar 2009
Apparently the server was hacked using my user and the server admin suggested the my ssh can be tainted.
do a checksum of the ssh, but I cannot find this file on my system.
Code:
md5sum /usr/sbin/sshd
And I will need a md5 hash from a good untainted version and I cannot find that as well on the openssh website.
Ubuntu Security :: How To Disable Apt Authentication Check
Apr 3, 2011having a slow internet connection, I bought the all maverick repository on DVDs, copied the files on a usb drive and modified the apt sources file to consider the local repository only:
Code:
# deb file:/var/www/ubuntu_local/ ./
deb file:/var/www/maverick/dvd1/ maverick main universe restricted multiverse
deb file:/var/www/maverick/dvd2/ maverick main universe restricted multiverse
deb file:/var/www/maverick/dvd3/ maverick main universe restricted multiverse
[code]....
Even though I am reasonably sure it is safe, this local repository is not authenticated and I can only install package through the command line or synaptic, the Ubuntu Software Centre giving an error message "Requires installation of untrusted packages"...I thus would like to disable the apt authentication check for this local repository.
General :: Script To Check Password Security
Apr 22, 2010Im trying to make a script that will test the suitability of a password. I understand that all the features I want are in the /etc/pam.d/common-password file. From here I can change the length of a password, what characters must be in a password, if the words are in the dictionary, etc... but I don't know how to change these values by using a script. I want it in a script because I want to be able to suggest a more suitable password if the original password doesn't meet the criteria.

Security :: Check Mail Via Tor And Browser Says Connection Untrusted?
May 20, 2011I was recently connecting securely to the website where I have my mail account, and I connected through Tor. When doing so firefox presents me with the screen saying that the connection is untrusted and it can't verify the certificate. So I cancelled. I'm using torbutton and I turned torbutton to off and connected again with no problem. Then with torbutton on again, same thing (untrusted).
Is it possible the exit node I was going through is doing a man in the middle attack? However later when connecting through tor I did NOT get the warning about the site being untrusted. I really don't know what exit node I was using when I got the certificate warning and what exit node I was using when I did not recieve the warning. I don't know how long I stay on the same node or how/when it changes.
General :: Check Number Of Pending Security Updates In Ubuntu
Oct 15, 2010I have been forbidden to enable automatic updates on our Ubuntu servers, for both security and regular packages.When I log into any of my four Ubuntu servers, the welcome message contains this:
39 packages can be updated.
26 updates are security updates.
However, when I run the Nagios plugin that monitors APT, I get:
% /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_apt
APT WARNING: 33 packages available for upgrade (0 critical updates).
I need to know how to properly detect that there are pending security updates, and regular updates. Once I can do that, I plan to write a Nagios script that will return WARNING for pending regular updates, and CRITICAL for pending security updates.

View 4 Replies View RelatedSecurity :: SSH Time Out On Login Attempt From Remote Box: Command Needed To Check Port 22?
Dec 1, 2010I have set up a user to login remotely to our Red Hat 5 server via SSH. A rule in our department firewall enables this user to login from a single static ip address. The ssh port on our server is 22. I am able to login to port 22 from locations within our department firewall. Our administrator says the firewall configuration is unchanged. The remote user had been successful logging in. But now the remote user gets a Connection Timed Out message, before being asked to authenticate by the server.
I regenerated security keys, but the remote user still gets the connection timed out message. (I can login locally with the new keys). I suspect either a firewall or an authentication problem--inclining a firewall problem. Am I correct? Is there a Linux command to check whether port 22 is available or blocked, prior even to authentication, for login from the user's remote location?

View 2 Replies View RelatedSecurity :: Iptables: Verify Traffic On Port To Check If It Is Legitimate For That Port?
Apr 18, 2011Is there any way to verify if packets being trafficked over a certain port are valid for the service you want to use this port for?
One obvious example that probably clarifies my question:
When I open port 443 (outgoing or incoming) for https/ssl traffic, I don't want this port to be used for say openvpn traffic.
Thus: when someone wants to surf to a website with https, it should be ok but if someone wants to connect to his home openvpn server over that same port, it should be blocked.
Ubuntu :: Ekiga And "security Check Failed"
Jun 28, 2010I was looking for a software to use for VOIP calls and I tried Ekiga (since Empathy does not seem to work at all for VOIP) I installed, checked the sound settings and all worked fine. I setup the first account I have with my SIP provider and it worked fine. The I setup another account I have with the same SIP provider. The settings have been tested time and time again and they are correct. Both account work perfectly on a windows machine with X-lite, but on Ekiga, with the second account, I cannot make any calls because I get the "security check failed" message. yet the settings are correct and they are the same for both accounts (apart from username and password of course). Unregistering from one account and registering into the other does not make any difference. It just does not want to play nice. if anyone has a better suggestion for VOIP calls.
View 1 Replies View RelatedDebian :: Migration Check List - To Check - Prepare Or Reconfigure
Feb 3, 2010I am new to Debian but not Linux-based systems. I have been experimenting a lot with Debian Lenny/Squeeze. I am growing more comfortable each day with the Debian design. Yet there remain many unexplored areas. I am creating a migration check list. Things to check, prepare, or reconfigure when moving from one Linux-based system to Debian.
I have a good computer background and my current check list probably is fairly good. Yet I would appreciate input and opinions from experienced Debian users of things to watch in such a migration. Login defs, passwd/group files, different directory locations, keymaps, services and daemons, etc. I am not too concerned with the desktop as I plan to stick with KDE 3.5 for a while and I can basically move those settings across.
