Message-ID: <20110408195250.GA20662@ngolde.de> Date: Fri, 8 Apr 2011 21:52:50 +0200 From: Nico Golde <nion@...ian.org> To: debian-security-announce@...ts.debian.org Subject: [SECURITY] [DSA 2213-1] x11-xserver-utils security update -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA-2213-1 security@...ian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Nico Golde April 8, 2011 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : x11-xserver-utils Vulnerability : missing input sanitization Problem type : remote Debian-specific: no CVE ID : CVE-2011-0465 Debian bug : 621423 Sebastian Krahmer discovered that the xrdb utility of x11-xserver-utils, a X server resource database utility, is not properly filtering crafted hostnames. This allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code with root privileges given that either remote logins via xdmcp are allowed or the attacker is able to place a rogue DHCP server into the victims network. The oldstable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 7.3+6. For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 7.5+3. For the testing distribution (wheezy), this problem will be fixed soon. For the testing distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 7.6+2. We recommend that you upgrade your x11-xserver-utils packages.
