The vulnerability affects certain versions of OpenSSH and can potentially allow remote unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code on your system. This script gives you the option to upgrade to a safe version of OpenSSH or apply a temporary fix to reduce the risk of exploitation. ### Affected Versions - **Vulnerable Versions:** - OpenSSH versions earlier than 4.4p1 are vulnerable unless patched for CVE-2006-5051 and CVE-2008-4109. - Versions from 8.5p1 up to, but not including, 9.8p1 are vulnerable due to the reintroduction of a critical issue. - **Safe Versions:** - Versions from 4.4p1 to 8.5p1 are not vulnerable due to a patch that was applied in these versions. - Versions 9.8p1 and later include the necessary fixes. ## Script Features - **Version Check:** - The script checks your current OpenSSH version to determine if it is vulnerable. - **Upgrade Option:** - If your version is vulnerable, the script prompts you to upgrade OpenSSH to the latest secure version. - **Temporary Fix:** - If you choose not to upgrade, the script applies a temporary workaround by modifying the `sshd_config` file to reduce the attack surface. - **User Notifications:** - The script concludes by advising on best practices for securing your SSH service. ## Usage 1. **Download and Save the Script:** - Save the script to your local machine with a name like `fix_cve_2024_6387.sh`. 2. **Make the Script Executable:** - Run the following command to make the script executable: ```bash chmod +x fix_cve_2024_6387.sh ``` 3. **Run the Script with Root Privileges:** - Execute the script using `sudo` to ensure it has the necessary permissions: ```bash sudo ./fix_cve_2024_6387.sh ``` 4. **Follow the Prompts:** - If your OpenSSH version is vulnerable, the script will prompt you to upgrade. You can choose to upgrade or apply the temporary fix. ## Important Notes - **Backup:** It is always recommended to backup your SSH configuration files and other important data before running any scripts that modify system settings. - **Monitoring:** After applying the fix or upgrading, monitor your SSH logs for any unusual activity and ensure that your SSH service is restricted to trusted networks. - **Key-Based Authentication:** For enhanced security, use key-based authentication instead of password-based authentication. ## License This project is licensed under the MIT License - see the [LICENSE](LICENSE) file for details. ## Contributing If you find any issues or have suggestions for improvements, feel free to submit a pull request or open an issue.
