Package: php5 Version: 5.2.0-8+etch11 Severity: important -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
via http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-2829: php_imap.c in PHP 5.2.5, 5.2.6, 4.x, and other versions, uses obsolete API calls that allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long IMAP request, which triggers an "rfc822.c legacy routine buffer overflow" error message. note that this issue is already fixed in lenny and sid, but a fix may not be possible without an update to the imap library itself, which does not provide the updated/safe api in the version available in etch. sean - -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages php5 depends on: ii libapache2-mod-php5 5.2.6-3 server-side, HTML-embedded scripti ii php5-cgi 5.2.6-3 server-side, HTML-embedded scripti ii php5-common 5.2.6-3 Common files for packages built fr php5 recommends no packages. php5 suggests no packages. - -- no debconf information -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFI2eJ/ynjLPm522B0RAtl5AJ9eqD5+2q9CTtZ9wVg6ewtv7AsoKQCeKPak vIRbuZNEugM8Tuyn2Jf72dE= =9YW1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
