Debian DLA-2489-1 : minidlna security update

critical Nessus Plugin ID 144092

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

It was discovered that missing input validation in minidlna, a lightweight DLNA/UPnP-AV server could result in the execution of arbitrary code. In addition minidlna was susceptible to the 'CallStranger' UPnP vulnerability.

For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version 1.1.6+dfsg-1+deb9u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your minidlna packages.

For the detailed security status of minidlna please refer to its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/minidlna

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 minidlna package.
