DSA 1402-1: New gforge packages fix several vulnerabilities

Posted by Bob on: 11/08/2007 12:50 AM [ 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-1402-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Steve Kemp
November 07, 2007 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : gforge
Vulnerability : insecure temporary files
Problem type : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2007-3921

Steve Kemp from the Debian Security Audit project discovered that gforge,
a collaborative development tool, used temporary files insecurely which
could allow local users to truncate files upon the system with the privileges
of the gforge user, or create a denial of service attack.

For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version
4.5.14-22etch3.

For the old stable distribution (sarge), this problem has been fixed in
version 3.1-31sarge4.

We recommend that you upgrade your gforge 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.
