-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA 1031-1 security@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.debian.org/security/ Martin Schulze April 8th, 2006 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : cacti Vulnerability : several Problem type : remote Debian-specific: no CVE IDs : CVE-2006-0146 CVE-2006-0147 CVE-2006-0410 CVE-2006-0806 BugTraq IDs : 16187 16364 16720 Debian Bugs : 349985 358872 Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in libphp-adodb, the 'adodb' database abstraction layer for PHP, which is embedded in cacti, a frontend to rrdtool for monitoring systems and services. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2006-0146 Andreas Sandblad discovered that improper user input sanitisation results in a potential remote SQL injection vulnerability enabling an attacker to compromise applications, access or modify data, or exploit vulnerabilities in the underlying database implementation. This requires the MySQL root password to be empty. It is fixed by limiting access to the script in question. CVE-2006-0147 A dynamic code evaluation vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP functions via the 'do' parameter. CVE-2006-0410 Andy Staudacher discovered an SQL injection vulnerability due to insufficient input sanitising that allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands. CVE-2006-0806 GulfTech Security Research discovered multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities due to improper user-supplied input sanitisation. Attackers can exploit these vulnerabilities to cause arbitrary scripts to be executed in the browser of an unsuspecting user's machine, or result in the theft of cookie-based authentication credentials. The old stable distribution (woody) is not affected by these problems. For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 0.8.6c-7sarge3. For the unstable distribution these problems will be fixed soon. We recommend that you upgrade your cacti package. 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.
