DSA 1372-1: New ktorrent packages fix directory traversal

Posted by Bob on: 09/11/2007 07:30 PM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

The Debian Security Team published a new security update for Debian GNU/Linux. Here the announcement:

Hash: SHA1

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Debian Security Advisory DSA 1373-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Steve Kemp
September 11th, 2007 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : ktorrent
Vulnerability : directory traversal
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2007-1799
Debian Bug : 432007

It was discovered that ktorrent, a BitTorrent client for KDE, was vulnerable
to a directory traversal bug which potentially allowed remote users to
overwrite arbitrary files.

For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version
2.0.3+dfsg1-2etch1.

For the old stable distribution (sarge), this package was not present.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem was fixed in version
2.2.1.dfsg.1-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your ktorrent package.


Upgrade instructions
- --------------------

wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
