Descriptions

The default SSH configuration in Rapid7 Nexpose hardware appliances shipped before June 2017 does not specify desired algorithms for key exchange and other important functions. As a result, it falls back to allowing ALL algorithms supported by the relevant version of OpenSSH and makes the installations vulnerable to a range of MITM, downgrade, and decryption attacks.

La configuraciĆ³n por defecto de SSH en los dispositivos hardware con Nexpose de Rapid7 enviados antes de Junio de 2017 no especifica los algoritmos deseados para el intercambio de claves y otras funciones importantes. Como resultado, vuelve a permitir TODOS los algoritmos compatibles para la versiĆ³n relevante de OpenSSH y hace que las instalaciones sean vulnerables a una variedad de ataques MITM, degradados y descifrados.
