[DLA 597-1] libupnp security update

Package : libupnp
Version : 1.6.17-1.2+deb7u1
CVE ID : CVE-2016-6255
Debian Bug : 831857


It has been discovered that libupnp's default behaviour allows anyone
to write to the filesystem of the system running a libupnp-based
server application.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
1.6.17-1.2+deb7u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libupnp packages.

[DSA 3649-1] gnupg security update

Package : gnupg
CVE ID : CVE-2016-6313

Felix Doerre and Vladimir Klebanov from the Karlsruhe Institute of
Technology discovered a flaw in the mixing functions of GnuPG's random
number generator. An attacker who obtains 4640 bits from the RNG can
trivially predict the next 160 bits of output.

A first analysis on the impact of this bug for GnuPG shows that existing
RSA keys are not weakened. For DSA and Elgamal keys it is also unlikely
that the private key can be predicted from other public information.

For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.4.18-7+deb8u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your gnupg packages.
