Debian DSA-3363-1 : owncloud-client - security update

low Nessus Plugin ID 86025

Synopsis

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

Description

Johannes Kliemann discovered a vulnerability in ownCloud Desktop Client, the client-side of the ownCloud file sharing services. The vulnerability allows man-in-the-middle attacks in situations where the server is using self-signed certificates and the connection is already established. If the user in the client side manually distrusts the new certificate, the file syncing will continue using the malicious server as valid.

Solution

Upgrade the owncloud-client packages.

For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in version 1.7.0~beta1+really1.6.4+dfsg-1+deb8u1.
