[DSA901] DSA-901-1 gnump3d Vulnerability Scan
Vulnerability Scan Summary DSA-901-1 gnump3d
Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test
Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in gnump3d, a streaming
server for MP3 and OGG files. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures Project identifies the following problems:
Ludwig Nussel discovered several temporary files that are created
with predictable filenames in an insecure fashion and allows local
attackers to craft symlink attacks.
Ludwig Nussel discovered that the theme parameter to HTTP
requests may be used for path traversal.
The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain a gnump3d package.
For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in
version 2.9.3-1sarge3.
For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in
version 2.9.8-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your gnump3 package.
