Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.63609 |
Category: | Debian Local Security Checks |
Title: | Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-1744-1) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'weechat' package(s) announced via the DSA-1744-1 advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'weechat' package(s) announced via the DSA-1744-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Sebastien Helleu discovered that an error in the handling of color codes in the weechat IRC client could cause an out-of-bounds read of an internal color array. This can be used by an attacker to crash user clients via a crafted PRIVMSG command. The weechat version in the oldstable distribution (etch) is not affected by this problem. For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 0.2.6-1+lenny1. For the testing distribution (squeeze), this problem will be fixed soon. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 0.2.6.1-1. We recommend that you upgrade your weechat packages. Affected Software/OS: 'weechat' package(s) on Debian 5. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 5.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P |
