Vulnerability Insight:
Update Information:

Upgrade to 0.072 of ZNC, fixes security issue in bug 513152 An users data
directory traversal flaw was found in the way ZNC used to handle file upload
requests via Direct Client Connection (DCC) /dcc SEND messages. A remote IRC
user could issue a /dcc SEND message with a specially-crafted content (file to
upload), which once accepted by a local, unsuspecting ZNC user, would overwrite
relevant files in the users//downloads data directory.

Solution:
Apply the appropriate updates.

This update can be installed with the yum update program. Use
su -c 'yum update znc' at the command line.

CVSS Score:
