Debian DSA-1765-1 : horde3 - Multiple vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 36119

Synopsis

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

Description

Several vulnerabilities have been found in horde3, the horde web application framework. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :

- CVE-2009-0932 Gunnar Wrobel discovered a directory traversal vulnerability, which allows attackers to include and execute arbitrary local files via the driver parameter in Horde_Image.

- CVE-2008-3330 It was discovered that an attacker could perform a cross-site scripting attack via the contact name, which allows attackers to inject arbitrary html code. This requires that the attacker has access to create contacts.

- CVE-2008-5917 It was discovered that the horde XSS filter is prone to a cross-site scripting attack, which allows attackers to inject arbitrary html code. This is only exploitable when Internet Explorer is used.

Solution

Upgrade the horde3 packages.

For the oldstable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 3.1.3-4etch5.

For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in version 3.2.2+debian0-2, which was already included in the lenny release.
