Subject: [SECURITY] [DSA 447-1] New hsftp packages fix format string vulnerability

Debian Security Advisory DSA 447-1                     security@...ian.org

Package        : hsftp
Vulnerability  : format string
Problem-Type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id         : CAN-2004-0159

During an audit, Ulf Harnhammar discovered a format string
vulnerability in hsftp.  This vulnerability could be exploited by an
attacker able to create files on a remote server with carefully
crafted names, to which a user would connect using hsftp.  When the
user requests a directory listing, particular bytes in memory could be
overwritten, potentially allowing arbitrary code to be executed with
the privileges of the user invoking hsftp.

Note that while hsftp is installed setuid root, it only uses these
privileges to acquire locked memory, and then relinquishes them.

For the current stable distribution (woody) this problem has been
fixed in version 1.11-1woody1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you update your hsftp package.

Upgrade Instructions
- --------------------

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        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.
