New mc packages are available for Debian GNU/Linux

Debian Security Advisory DSA 639-1 security@debian.org

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : mc
Vulnerability : several
Problem-Type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CAN-2004-1004 CAN-2004-1005 CAN-2004-1009 CAN-2004-1090 CAN-2004-1091
CAN-2004-1092 CAN-2004-1093 CAN-2004-1174 CAN-2004-1175 CAN-2004-1176
Andrew V. Samoilov has noticed that several bugfixes which were applied to the source by upstream developers of mc, the midnight commander, a file browser and manager, were not backported to the current version of mc that Debian ships in their stable release. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project identifies the following vulnerabilities:
CAN-2004-1004
Multiple format string vulnerabilities
CAN-2004-1005
Multiple buffer overflows
CAN-2004-1009
One infinite loop vulnerability
CAN-2004-1090
Denial of service via corrupted section header
CAN-2004-1091
Denial of service via null dereference
CAN-2004-1092
Freeing unallocated memory
CAN-2004-1093
Denial of service via use of already freed memory
CAN-2004-1174
Denial of service via manipulating non-existing file handles
CAN-2004-1175
Unintended program execution via insecure filename quoting
CAN-2004-1176
Denial of service via a buffer underflow
For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 4.5.55-1.2woody5
For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems should already be fixed since they were backported from current versions.
We recommend that you upgrade your mc package.
