DSA 1826-1: New eggdrop packages fix several vulnerabilities

Posted by Bob on: 07/04/2009 04:00 AM [ 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-1826-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Steffen Joeris
July 04, 2009 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : eggdrop
Vulnerability : several
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2007-2807 CVE-2009-1789
Debian Bugs : 427157 528778

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in eggdrop, an advanced IRC
robot. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the
following problems:

CVE-2007-2807

It was discovered that eggdrop is vulnerable to a buffer overflow, which
could result in a remote user executing arbitrary code. The previous DSA
(DSA-1448-1) did not fix the issue correctly.

CVE-2009-1789

It was discovered that eggdrop is vulnerable to a denial of service
attack, that allows remote attackers to cause a crash via a crafted
PRIVMSG.

For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.6.19-1.1+lenny1.

For the old stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.6.18-1etch2.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.6.19-1.2


We recommend that you upgrade your eggdrop 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.
