-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA 1231-1 security@debian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Moritz Muehlenhoff December 9th, 2006 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : gnupg Vulnerability : several Problem-Type : local(remote) Debian-specific: no CVE ID : CVE-2006-6169 CVE-2006-6235 Debian Bug : 401894 401898 401914 Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the GNU privacy, a free PGP replacement, which may lead to the execution of arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2006-6169 Werner Koch discovered that a buffer overflow in a sanitising function may lead to execution of arbitrary code when running gnupg interactively. CVE-2006-6235 Tavis Ormandy discovered that parsing a carefully crafted OpenPGP packet may lead to the execution of arbitrary code, as a function pointer of an internal structure may be controlled through the decryption routines. For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 1.4.1-1.sarge6. For the upcoming stable distribution (etch) these problems have been fixed in version 1.4.6-1. For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 1.4.6-1. We recommend that you upgrade your gnupg packages. Upgrade Instructions - -------------------- wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file. If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for sources.list as given below: apt-get update will update the internal database apt-get upgrade will install corrected packages You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the footer to the proper configuration.
