Advisories, January 30, 2006Jan 31, 2006, 04:45 (0 Talkback[s])Debian GNU/LinuxDebian Security Advisory DSA 951-2 security@debian.org Package : trac This update corrects the search feature in trac, an enhanced wiki and issue tracking system for software development projects, which broke with the last security update. For completeness please find below the original advisory text: Several vulnerabilies have been discovered in trac, an enhanced wiki and issue tracking system for software development projects. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifie the following problems: CVE-2005-4065 Due to missing input sanitising it is possible to inject arbitrary SQL code into the SQL statements. CVE-2005-4644 A cross-site scripting vulnerability has been discovered that allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML. The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain trac packages. For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 0.8.1-3sarge4. For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 0.9.3-1. We recommend that you upgrade your trac package. Upgrade Instructions wget url will fetch the file for you 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 3.1 alias sarge Source archives: http://security.debian.org/pool/updates/main/t/trac/trac_0.8.1-3sarge4.dsc Architecture independent components: http://security.debian.org/pool/updates/main/t/trac/trac_0.8.1-3sarge4_all.deb These files will probably be moved into the stable distribution on its next update. Debian Security Advisory DSA 959-1 security@debian.org Package : unalz Ulf Hürnhammer from the Debian Audit Project discovered that unalz, a decompressor for ALZ archives, performs insufficient bounds checking when parsing file names. This can lead to arbitrary code execution if an attacker provides a crafted ALZ archive. The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain unalz. For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 0.30.1 For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon. We recommend that you upgrade your unalz package. Upgrade Instructions wget url will fetch the file for you 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.

Gentoo LinuxGentoo Linux Security Advisory GLSA 200601-15 Severity: High SynopsisParos's database component is installed without a password, allowing execution of arbitrary system commands. BackgroundParos is an intercepting proxy between a web server and a client meant to be used for security assessments. It allows the user to watch and modify the HTTP(S) traffic. Affected packages
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
1 net-proxy/paros <= 3.2.5 > 3.2.5 DescriptionAndrew Christensen discovered that in older versions of Paros the database component HSQLDB is installed with an empty password for the database administrator "sa". ImpactSince the database listens globally by default, an attacker can connect and issue arbitrary commands, including execution of binaries installed on the host. WorkaroundThere is no known workaround at this time. ResolutionAll Paros users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --snyc
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-proxy/paros-3.2.8"

BackgroundMyDNS is a DNS server using a MySQL database as a backend. It is designed to allow for fast updates and small resource usage. Affected packages
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
1 net-dns/mydns < 1.1.0 >= 1.1.0 DescriptionMyDNS contains an unspecified flaw that may allow a remote Denial of Service. ImpactAn attacker could cause a Denial of Service by sending malformed DNS queries to the MyDNS server. WorkaroundThere is no known workaround at this time. ResolutionAll MyDNS users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-dns/mydns-1.1.0"

BackgroundXpdf is a PDF file viewer that runs under the X Window System. Poppler is a PDF rendering library based on the Xpdf 3.0 code base. GPdf is a PDF file viewer for the GNOME 2 platform, also based on Xpdf. libextractor is a library which includes Xpdf code to extract arbitrary meta-data from files. pdftohtml is a utility to convert PDF files to HTML or XML formats that makes use of Xpdf code to decode PDF files. Affected packages
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
DescriptionChris Evans has reported some integer overflows in Xpdf when attempting to calculate buffer sizes for memory allocation, leading to a heap overflow and a potential infinite loop when handling malformed input files. ImpactBy sending a specially crafted PDF file to a victim, an attacker could cause an overflow, potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. WorkaroundThere is no known workaround at this time. ResolutionAll Xpdf users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-text/xpdf-3.01-r5"
All Poppler users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-text/poppler-0.4.3-r4"
All GPdf users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-text/gpdf-2.10.0-r3"
All libextractor users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/libextractor-0.5.9"
All pdftohtml users should migrate to the latest stable version of Poppler.
