Debian -- Security Information Martin Schulze January 12th, 2004 Debian -- Debian security FAQ - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : jitterbug Vulnerability : improperly sanitised input Problem-Type : remote Debian-specific: no CVE ID : CAN-2004-0028 Steve Kemp discovered a security related problem in jitterbug, a simple CGI based bug tracking and reporting tool. Unfortunately not program executions use properly sanitized input which allows an attacker to execute arbitary commands on the server hosting the bug database. As mitigating factors these attacks are only available to non-guest users, and accounts for these people must be setup by the administrator making them "trusted". For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 1.6.2-4.2woody2. For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 1.6.2-4.5. We recommend that you upgrade your jitterbug 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.
