medium Nessus Plugin ID 69607

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Amazon Linux AMI host is missing a security update.

Description

It was found that the OpenLDAP server daemon ignored olcTLSCipherSuite settings. This resulted in the default cipher suite always being used, which could lead to weaker than expected ciphers being accepted during Transport Layer Security (TLS) negotiation with OpenLDAP clients.
(CVE-2012-2668)

Solution

Run 'yum update openldap' to update your system.
