Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.72566 |
Category: | Debian Local Security Checks |
Title: | Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-2571-1) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libproxy' package(s) announced via the DSA-2571-1 advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libproxy' package(s) announced via the DSA-2571-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: The Red Hat Security Response Team discovered that libproxy, a library for automatic proxy configuration management, applied insufficient validation to the Content-Length header sent by a server providing a proxy.pac file. Such remote server could trigger an integer overflow and consequently overflow an in-memory buffer. For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 0.3.1-2+squeeze1. For the testing distribution (wheezy), and the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 0.3.1-5.1. We recommend that you upgrade your libproxy packages. Affected Software/OS: 'libproxy' package(s) on Debian 6. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 10.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
