Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'nginx' package(s) announced via the DLA-2680-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Jamie Landeg-Jones and Manfred Paul discovered a buffer overflow vulnerability in NGINX, a small, powerful, scalable web/proxy server.

NGINX has a buffer overflow for years that exceed four digits, as demonstrated by a file with a modification date in 1969 that causes an integer overflow (or a false modification date far in the future), when encountered by the autoindex module.

For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version 1.10.3-1+deb9u7.

We recommend that you upgrade your nginx packages.

For the detailed security status of nginx please refer to its security tracker page at: [link moved to references]
