DSA-2002-1: New polipo packages fix denial of service

Posted by Bob on: 02/19/2010 04:45 PM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

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

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Debian Security Advisory DSA-2002-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Stefan Fritsch
February 19, 2010 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : polipo
Vulnerability : denial of service
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2009-3305 CVE-2009-4413
Debian bug : 547047 560779

Several denial of service vulnerabilities have been discovered in polipo, a
small, caching web proxy. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
identifies the following problems:

CVE-2009-3305

A malicous remote sever could cause polipo to crash by sending an
invalid Cache-Control header.

CVE-2009-4143

A malicous client could cause polipo to crash by sending a large
Content-Length value.

This upgrade also fixes some other bugs that could lead to a daemon crash
or an infinite loop and may be triggerable remotely.

For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.0.4-1+lenny1.

For the testing distribution (squeeze) and the unstable distribution (sid),
these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.4-3.


We recommend that you upgrade your polipo packages.

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.


Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 alias lenny (stable)
- -----------------------------------------

Stable updates are available for alpha, amd64, arm, armel, hppa, i386, ia64, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390 and sparc.
