Debian DSA-1990-1 : trac-git - shell command injection

medium Nessus Plugin ID 44854

Language:

Synopsis

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

Description

Stefan Goebel discovered that the Debian version of trac-git, the Git add-on for the Trac issue tracking system, contains a flaw which enables attackers to execute code on the web server running trac-git by sending crafted HTTP queries.

Solution

Upgrade the trac-git package.

The old stable distribution (etch) does not contain a trac-git package.

For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 0.0.20080710-3+lenny1.
