Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.64252 |
Category: | Debian Local Security Checks |
Title: | Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-1817-1) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'ctorrent' package(s) announced via the DSA-1817-1 advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'ctorrent' package(s) announced via the DSA-1817-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Michael Brooks discovered that ctorrent, a text-mode bittorrent client, does not verify the length of file paths in torrent files. An attacker can exploit this via a crafted torrent that contains a long file path to execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user opening the file. The oldstable distribution (etch) does not contain ctorrent. For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 1.3.4-dnh3.2-1+lenny1. For the testing distribution (squeeze), this problem will be fixed soon. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 1.3.4-dnh3.2-1.1. We recommend that you upgrade your ctorrent packages. Affected Software/OS: 'ctorrent' package(s) on Debian 5. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 9.3 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
