Ubuntu Security Notice USN-360-1 October 10, 2006
awstats vulnerabilities
CVE-2006-3681, CVE-2006-3682
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=

=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 5.04
Ubuntu 5.10
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 5.04:
awstats 6.3-1ubuntu0.4

Ubuntu 5.10:
awstats 6.4-1ubuntu1.3

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
awstats 6.5-1ubuntu1.2

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.

Details follow:

awstats did not fully sanitize input, which was passed directly to the user=
's
browser, allowing for an XSS attack. If a user was tricked into following a
specially crafted awstats URL, the user's authentication information could =
be
exposed for the domain where awstats was hosted. (CVE-2006-3681)

awstats could display its installation path under certain conditions.
However, this might only become a concern if awstats is installed into
an user's home directory. (CVE-2006-3682)
