-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA-2652-1 security@debian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Michael Gilbert March 24, 2013 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : libxml2 Vulnerability : external entity expansion Problem type : remote Debian-specific: no CVE ID : CVE-2013-0338 CVE-2013-0339 Debian Bug : 702260 Brad Hill of iSEC Partners discovered that many XML implementations are vulnerable to external entity expansion issues, which can be used for various purposes such as firewall circumvention, disguising an IP address, and denial-of-service. libxml2 was susceptible to these problems when performing string substitution during entity expansion. For the stable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in version 2.7.8.dfsg-2+squeeze7. For the testing (wheezy) and unstable (sid) distributions, these problems have been fixed in version 2.8.0+dfsg1-7+nmu1. We recommend that you upgrade your libxml2 packages.
