It was discovered that there was a vulnerability in lynis, a security auditing tool. The license key could be obtained by simple observation of the process list when a data upload is being performed.

For Debian 8 ‘Jessie’, this issue has been fixed in lynis version 1.6.3-1+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your lynis packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
