Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'mapserver' package(s) announced via the DSA-2079-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in mapserver, a CGI-based web framework to publish spatial data and interactive mapping applications. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

CVE-2010-2539

A stack-based buffer overflow in the msTmpFile function might lead to arbitrary code execution under some conditions.

CVE-2010-2540

It was discovered that the CGI debug command-line arguments which are enabled by default are insecure and may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. Therefore they have been disabled by default.

For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 5.0.3-3+lenny5.

For the testing distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 5.6.4-1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 5.6.4-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your mapserver packages.

Affected Software/OS:
