Ubuntu Security :: Check Openssh Md5 Checksum
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.

Sep 22, 2010I have an OpenSSH server running on Ubuntu 10.04, and it works fine.
I'm concerned that my SSH key may have been compromised and would like to replace it.
I tried replacing keys before and reinstalling OpenSSH and SSH before but ran into terrible trouble so I'm asking for instruction before touching anything this time.
Code:
laeg@skyrocket:~/.ssh$ ls
authorized_keys id_rsa id_rsa.ppk id_rsa.pub known_hosts
Code:
laeg@skyrocket:/etc/ssh$ ls

So can I just synpaptic 'fully' uninstall SHH (although probably even less necessary than..) and OpenSHH, backup sshd_config, delete the two dirs referenced above, reinstall both packages, insert my sshd_config backup, and then start from scratch following the guides linked below?
General :: Security - Change OpenSSH Account Password
Feb 15, 2011I suppose that my main Linux user account password serves as my SSH password as well. Is there a way I can modify this? As it turns out, I'd like to have a REALLY secure SSH password for obvious reasons, but a less secure local password, as it makes typing in passwords a heck of a lot easier on a machine. Is there a way I can change my account password in SSH without changing my Linux user password?
View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Security :: Root Unlocked - But Didn't Unlock It
Sep 7, 2010So I was testing to see what would happen if I tried to open a root shell in recovery mode, WITHOUT having first activated the root-user account (I only installed the system two days ago). I used my ordinary password and was expecting to see something like "Invalid password" or some such message. To my surprise, I got a root prompt. Thinking that this may just be how it works with recovery mode, I tried logging out of my X session and logging back in as root, thinking (or at least hoping) that it wouldn't work. But it did.

Apr 19, 2011When I set up an ID in Ubuntu, I encrypted it. I did a print screen of the passphrase and put it on the desktop. I'm just learning how to use the encryption so don't fault me for putting it right on the desktop. There is no important data in this ID. Now, I went and changed my password to the account. On the next boot, I got a few error message:
Could not update ICEauthority file /home/mickymouse/.ICEauthority
There is a problem with the configuration server /usr/lib/libconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 256 In researching these, it looks like the problem is that I changed the password but didn't update (or something) my passphrase.
I can't boot into the GUI but I have figured out how to boot to a command prompt. I don't have access to my home directory because I don't have my passphrase. Am I toast or is there a way to recover / update the passphrase?

Ubuntu Security :: Installed Prixfixe Through Software Center To Edit The Menus - Restart/shutdown Buttons Didn't Work?
Jan 21, 2011I run apache on a non standard port(82).I just installed unity to play around with it and while I was playing with it I installed prixfixe through software center to edit the menus.While prixfixe was installing my computer was acting very slow which was odd, but not completely unusual.During this time I ran ps aux which showed that my apache server was taking up most of the processing power.I was about to stop my web server,but I waited just in case the web server was updating a few things (I run ampache).
My computer finished installing the software and then I ran some command with sudo (I can't remember what the command was), but it threw back some message saying "setid blabla". I restarted my computer and when I got to my gdm my normal user account did not show up. There were no accounts and the restart/shutdown buttons didn't work.Now I'm running on a livecd and checking out my apache access logs, apache error logs,and kernel logs,but nothing looks out of place..
Ubuntu Security :: NX Bit Doesn't Work In 64-bit Kubuntu
Feb 21, 2010I'm using kubuntu-9.10-desktop-amd64.iso live (booted via grub2 loopback directly from iso on hd, in case that makes a difference).

But dmesg says "Using x86 segment limits to approximate NX protection".

Security :: Setting Up IPTables For Kubuntu 10.4?
Feb 21, 2011After discovering that the firewall was wide open I decided to finally study the iptables docs and learn how to add rules. Now, I've not yet finished reading guides and documentation but I'd like some advice before I set the default policy on the input chain to deny. I have added a permissive rule for the loopback adapter so that programs that use it do not become mute suddenly. I will also use netstat to see what ports to open for each program that connects to the internet. I'm not that interested in what ports to open but how to find what ports to open.
View 3 Replies View RelatedFedora :: How To Install Software - Install Popup Didn't Come Up ?
Jan 10, 2011I now have Fedora 14 64bit up and running.
I need a bit of clarification. I've been using Debian based OSes. I just want to make sure that I understand how to install software using Fedora.
While I had the Live DVD desktop running I downloaded the Google Chrome .rpm pack to the download file, right clicked on the .rpm and opened with the archive manager. The archive manager came up and showed me a file folder, the a popup came up on it's own and ask if I wanted to install, clicked yes and every thing from there worked, Chrome was installed and worked. When I tryied to download the plugin for Google and do the same as before, the install popup didn't come up. This is the part where I made a mistake, I went to the download folder and double clicked on the .rpm and the install popup came up, and I installed. This some how messed up the Live desktop to the point that I had to reboot, shut down didn't even work right.
I should have opened the folder the archive manager placed the .rpm and then double clicked on the .rpm to install instead of within the dowload folder.
I aslo read up on how to use rpm -i filename From the terminal can I Or does the .rpm package have to be in the correct folder before installing?
Also from the live dvd I tried using sudo rpm -i , but got a warning and said I would be reported.

View 7 Replies View RelatedSecurity :: In Search Of Fundamentals Of Hardening (Kubuntu System)
Mar 22, 2011When I google this I get a million results, most of which are either too in-depth to be practical or advertisements for one solution or another. Is there a general guideline for hardening a linux (kubuntu) system? A set of steps say, to close all ports and disable all listening services like you would do to a windows machine? I can hardly believe that there are NO vulnerable points of attack on a default kubuntu 10.10 install. I don't know very much right now so I'm looking for something to fill in the gaps and translate my knowledge of windows (in)security into a holistic view of how the penguin operates.

Not sure what exactly is wrong now that the install didn't complete. Any way for me to check what went wrong and what exactly I can do to make sure my system is ok? All appears ok but appearances can be deceiving.
