Package: fail2ban Version: 0.5.4-5 Severity: important
With the new failregex line in the config file, fail2ban fails to ban ssh accesses by illegal users. Furthermore, modifying the failregex probably doesn't prevent the security breach(#330827). fail2ban itself rather than the fairegex must be changed to parse failure log more strictly so that it can obtain the real IP address at the end of the line, not the IP-like user name. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.27-2-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages fail2ban depends on: ii iptables 1.2.11-10 Linux kernel 2.4+ iptables adminis ii python 2.3.5-2 An interactive high-level object-o -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
