[SSH Password Bypass Vulnerability on Alpine Linux Systems Successfully Exploited] GreyNoise reports that an SSH password authentication bypass vulnerability affecting some Alpine Linux systems has been successfully exploited. GreyNoise detected scans, exploit attempts, and successful exploit activity targeting this vulnerability on November 6th. Previdian recorded 20 exploit attempts from 13 different IP addresses using four sensors between November 6th and 8th, but these observations do not prove the vulnerability exists or that the attempts were successful. Alpine recommends that operators install the corresponding version of the OpenSSH patch and restart the SSH service. Users unable to update can disable password authentication and restart the service. (Source: The Defiant)
