Debian DSA-1063-1 : phpgroupware - missing input sanitising

high Nessus Plugin ID 22605

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

It was discovered that the Avatar upload feature of FUD Forum, a component of the web-based groupware system phpgroupware, does not sufficiently validate uploaded files, which might lead to the execution of injected web script code.

Solution

Upgrade the phpgroupware packages.

For the old stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 0.9.14-0.RC3.2.woody6.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 0.9.16.005-3.sarge5.
