Bug vulnerability class | Configuration |
Bug description | The remote host is running CVSTrac, a Web-Based Bug and Patch-Set tracking system for CVS. |
Bug solution | The server should be deactivated or de-installed if not necessary. To make it harder to find the server the daemon could be configured to listen at another port (e.g. 8081). Try to prevent unwanted connection attempts by filtering traffic with firewalling. Alternation of the application banner can confuse an attacker and let him determine the wrong software. |
