Message-ID: <m1DsHX0-000ojEC@finlandia.Infodrom.North.DE> Date: Tue Jul 12 11:07:22 2005 From: joey at infodrom.org (Martin Schulze) Subject: [SECURITY] [DSA 753-1] New gedit packages fix denial of service -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA 753-1 security@...ian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Martin Schulze July 12th, 2005 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : gedit Vulnerability : format string Problem-Type : remote Debian-specific: no CVE ID : CAN-2005-1686 A format string vulnerability has been discovered in gedit, a light-weight text editor for GNOME, that may allow attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a binary file with format string specifiers in the filename. Since gedit supports opening files via "http://" URLs (through GNOME vfs) and other schemes, this might be a remotely exploitable vulnerability. The old stable distribution (woody) is not vulnerable to this problem. For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 2.8.3-4sarge1. For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 2.10.3-1. We recommend that you upgrade your gedit 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.
