- # This is the "check" for an old flaw (published in March 2002). We can't
- # actually determine the version of the remote mod_frontpage, so we issue
- # an alert each time we detect it as running.
- #
- # Mandrake's Security Advisory states that the flaw is remotely exploitable,
- # while FreeBSD's Security advisory (FreeBSD-SA-02:17) claims this is only
- # locally exploitable.
- #
- # In either case, we can't remotely determine the version of the server, so

- The remote host is using the Apache mod_frontpage module.

- mod_frontpage older than 1.6.1 is vulnerable to a buffer
- overflow which may allow an attacker to gain root access.

- *** Since Nessus was not able to remotely determine the version
- *** of mod_frontage you are running, you are advised to manually
- *** check which version you are running as this might be a false
- *** positive.
-
- If you want the remote server to be remotely secure, we advise
- you do not use this module at all.

- Solution : Disable this module
