Package : adzapper
Vulnerability : denial of service
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2006-0046
Debian Bug : 350308
Thomas Reifferscheid discovered that adzapper, a proxy
advertisement zapper add-on, when installed as plugin in squid, the
Internet object cache, can consume a lot of CPU resources and hence
cause a denial of service on the proxy host.
The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain an adzapper
package.
For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed
in version 20050316-1sarge1.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed
in version 20060115-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your adzapper package.
