tag_insight = "Mathias Gug discovered that vm-builder improperly set the root
  password when creating virtual machines. An attacker could exploit
  this to gain root privileges to the virtual machine by using a
  predictable password.

  This vulnerability only affects virtual machines created with
  vm-builder under Ubuntu 8.10, and does not affect native Ubuntu
  installations. An update was made to the shadow package to detect
  vulnerable systems and disable password authentication for the
  root account. Vulnerable virtual machines which an attacker has
  access to should be considered compromised, and appropriate actions
  taken to secure the machine.";
