Debian DLA-1894-1 : libapache2-mod-auth-openidc security

medium Nessus Plugin ID 128121

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

Compass Security Schweiz AG discovered an issue in libapache2-mod-auth-openidc, an OpenID Connect authentication module for Apache. The OIDCRedirectURI page contains generated JavaScript code that uses a poll parameter as a string variable, thus might contain additional JavaScript code. This might result in Criss-Site Scripting (XSS).

For Debian 8 'Jessie', this problem has been fixed in version 1.6.0-1+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libapache2-mod-auth-openidc packages.

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 libapache2-mod-auth-openidc package.
