DSA 1689-1: New proftpd-dfsg packages fix Cross-Site Request Forgery

Posted by Bob on: 12/21/2008 03:40 PM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

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




-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Debian Security Advisory DSA 1689-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Martin Schulze
December 21st, 2008 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : proftpd-dfsg
Vulnerability : missing input validation
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2008-4242
Debian Bug : 502674
BugTraq ID : 31289

Maksymilian Arciemowicz of securityreason.com reported that ProFTPD is
vulnerable to cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks and executes
arbitrary FTP commands via a long ftp:// URI that leverages an
existing session from the FTP client implementation in a web browser.

For the stable distribution (etch) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.3.0-19etch2 and in version 1.3.1-15~bpo40+1 for backports.

For the testing (lenny) and unstable (sid) distributions this problem
has been fixed in version 1.3.1-15.

We recommend that you upgrade your proftpd-dfsg 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 at the end of this advisory:

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.
