[Debian] Schwachstelle in noffle - DSA 244-1



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Liebe Kolleginnen und Kollegen,
 
soeben erreichte uns nachfolgende Warnung des Debian-Teams ueber
Sicherheitsprobleme in noffle. Wir geben diese Informationen
unveraendert an Sie weiter.
 
In noffle, einem offline News-Server, ist eine Schwachstelle
vorhanden, die zu einem Segmentation-Fault fuehrt. Moeglicherweise
kann die Schwachstelle von einem entfernten Angreifer ausgenutzt
werden, um beliebige Befehle mit den Privilegien des noffle Benutzers
auszufuehren.

Betroffen ist 

 - stable distribution (woody), korrigiert in 1.0.1-1.1.

 - unstable distribution (sid), korrigiert in 1.1.2-1.

Die old stable distribution (potato) beinhaltet noffle nicht und ist
deshalb nicht betroffen.

Package        : noffle
Vulnerability  : buffer overflows
Problem-Type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id         : CAN-2003-0037

Dan Jacobson noticed a problem in noffle, an offline news server, that
leads to a segmentation fault.  It is not yet clear whether this
problem is exploitable.  However, if it is, a remote attacker could
trigger arbitrary code execution under the user that calls noffle,
probably news.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.0.1-1.1.

The old stable distribution (potato) does not contain a noffle
package.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.1.2-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your noffle package.
