Expedition Tool - Azure Ubuntu PPA Errors

[jtsdev2023]

Howdy,

I'm wondering if anybody has tried installing the PA Expedition tool on Azure Ubuntu 20.04?

I installed Expedition on VMware Workstation Ubuntu 20.04 [ubuntu-20.04.3-live-server-amd64.iso] no problemo.

However, when I try installing on Microsoft Azure's Ubuntu 20.04 [20_04-lts-gen2 / 0001-com-ubuntu-server-focal], I can't install the requisite repositories (rabbitmq etc.).

I get errors like the following:

Cannot add PPA: 'ppa:~rabbitmq/ubuntu/rabbitmq-erlang-25'

ERROR: '~rabbitmq' user or team does not exist.

This happens for the "azure.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal".

It also happens if I manually edit the sources and use "us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal".

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks! ☺️

Hi @jtsdev2023 

Expedition is not using the rabbitmq and erlang packages from your listed sources. Instead we are using the ones defined in the below article: https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/expedition-articles/how-to-address-cve-2022-37026-vulnerability...

Could you check if the steps described in above article allows you to install the required packages in the Azure environment?

Best,

David

Howdy @dpuigdomenec ,

We couldn't get this to work from our corporate network.
Our solution was to deploy the PA Expedition tool in a lab environment.

Thanks for the responding with a suggestion! 👍
