Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

- CVE-2012-6130 Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the history display in Roundup before 1.4.20 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a username, related to generating a link.

- CVE-2012-6131 Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in cgi/client.py in Roundup before 1.4.20 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the @action parameter to support/issue1.

- CVE-2012-6132 Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Roundup before 1.4.20 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the otk parameter.

- CVE-2012-6133 XSS flaws in ok and error messages We solve this differently from the proposals in the bug-report by not allowing *any* html-tags in ok/error messages anymore.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected roundup package.
