Fedora 16 : gallery3-3.0.4-1.fc16 (2012-9666)

high Nessus Plugin ID 59743

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

Gallery 3.0.4 was released with the following release notes :

After several extensive internal and external security audits which discovered 22 distinct vulnerabilities, we are releasing Gallery 3.0.4 as a security release. All of the issues require that someone with malicious intent either have an account with edit permissions, or trick a user with edit permissions into clicking on a malicious link.
In most cases, this can only lead to a possible XSS vulnerability, but in several instances it allows arbitrary PHP code execution.

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

Solution

Update the affected gallery3 package.
