Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.55704
Category:Conectiva Local Security Checks
Title:Conectiva Security Advisory CLSA-2005:1040
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory CLSA-2005:1040.

This announcement fixes three vulnerabilities in Bugzilla:

Cross-site scripting
It is possible to send a carefully crafted URL to Bugzilla
designed to trigger an error message. The Internal Error message
includes javascript code which displays the URL the user is
visiting. The javascript code does not escape the URL before
displaying it, allowing scripts contained in the URL to be executed
by the browser.

Information leak
If a user correctly guesses the name of a product that should
be invisible to them, they will be specifically informed that
they do not have access to it, thus letting them know that the
product exists. Also, users can enter bugs into products that
are closed for bug entry, if they correctly guess the name of
the product.

User Password Embedded in URL
The user's password can be embedded as part of a report URL
and thus visible in the web server logs, if the user is prompted
to log in while attempting to view a chart.

Solution:
The apt tool can be used to perform RPM package upgrades
by running 'apt-get update' followed by 'apt-get upgrade'
