Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.64865 |
Category: | Debian Local Security Checks |
Title: | Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-1882-1) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'xapian-omega' package(s) announced via the DSA-1882-1 advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'xapian-omega' package(s) announced via the DSA-1882-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: It was discovered that xapian-omega, a CGI interface for searching xapian databases, is not properly escaping user supplied input when printing exceptions. An attacker can use this to conduct cross-site scripting attacks via crafted search queries resulting in an exception and steal potentially sensitive data from web applications running on the same domain or embedding the search engine into a website. For the oldstable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version 0.9.9-1+etch1. For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 1.0.7-3+lenny1. For the testing (squeeze) and unstable (sid) distribution, this problem will be fixed soon. We recommend that you upgrade your xapian-omega packages. Affected Software/OS: 'xapian-omega' package(s) on Debian 4, Debian 5. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 4.3 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N |
