  • This needs to be answered/addressed by Astaro. 

    There is now a scripted attack or worm installing rootkits on servers with this vulnerability.

    I'm very glad that Astaro chroots everything, but that may not be enough to prevent any infection.

  • Just because it's reporting version 4.69 doesn't mean it's not been patched; the 2 patches necessary have been around a long time, and I wouldn't be surprised if Astaro didn't already have them compiled into their build of it.  I imagine that there's already an IPS rule that detects this sort of thing already as well.

    I'll be starting a case with Astaro to determine what their response is.
