Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.67034 |
Category: | Debian Local Security Checks |
Title: | Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-2011-1) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'dpkg' package(s) announced via the DSA-2011-1 advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'dpkg' package(s) announced via the DSA-2011-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: William Grant discovered that the dpkg-source component of dpkg, the low-level infrastructure for handling the installation and removal of Debian software packages, is vulnerable to path traversal attacks. A specially crafted Debian source package can lead to file modification outside of the destination directory when extracting the package content. For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 1.14.29. For the testing (squeeze) and unstable (sid) distribution this problem will be fixed soon. We recommend that you upgrade your dpkg packages. Affected Software/OS: 'dpkg' package(s) on Debian 5. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 5.8 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:P |
