Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.68228 |
Category: | Ubuntu Local Security Checks |
Title: | Ubuntu USN-982-1 (wget) |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing an update to wget announced via advisory USN-982-1. Details follow: It was discovered that Wget would use filenames provided by the server when following 3xx redirects. If a user or automated system were tricked into downloading a file from a malicious site, a remote attacker could create the file with an arbitrary name (e.g. .wgetrc), and possibly run arbitrary code. Solution: The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 6.06 LTS: wget 1.10.2-1ubuntu1.2 Ubuntu 8.04 LTS: wget 1.10.2-3ubuntu1.2 Ubuntu 9.04: wget 1.11.4-2ubuntu1.2 Ubuntu 9.10: wget 1.11.4-2ubuntu2.1 Ubuntu 10.04 LTS: wget 1.12-1.1ubuntu2.1 In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes. ATTENTION: This update changes previous behaviour by ignoring the filename supplied by the server during redirects. To re-enable previous behaviour, use the new --trust-server-names option. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=USN-982-1 Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 6.8 |
