-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2013:234 http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : python-django Date : September 13, 2013 Affected: Business Server 1.0, Enterprise Server 5.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: A vulnerability has been discovered and corrected in python-django: Rainer Koirikivi discovered a directory traversal vulnerability with 'ssi' template tags in python-django, a high-level Python web development framework. It was shown that the handling of the 'ALLOWED_INCLUDE_ROOTS' setting, used to represent allowed prefixes for the {% ssi %} template tag, is vulnerable to a directory traversal attack, by specifying a file path which begins as the absolute path of a directory in 'ALLOWED_INCLUDE_ROOTS', and then uses relative paths to break free. To exploit this vulnerability an attacker must be in a position to alter templates on the site, or the site to be attacked must have one or more templates making use of the 'ssi' tag, and must allow some form of unsanitized user input to be used as an argument to the 'ssi' tag (CVE-2013-4315). The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2013-4315 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Enterprise Server 5: fcfdd74c10f1d320c689640553607289 mes5/i586/python-django-1.3.7-0.2mdvmes5.2.noarch.rpm 1db8ecba27f22c0a7e44d1f1aae827bf mes5/SRPMS/python-django-1.3.7-0.2mdvmes5.2.src.rpm Mandriva Enterprise Server 5/X86_64: 3707f6171b360dd898ef2fb6e4947eec mes5/x86_64/python-django-1.3.7-0.2mdvmes5.2.noarch.rpm 1db8ecba27f22c0a7e44d1f1aae827bf mes5/SRPMS/python-django-1.3.7-0.2mdvmes5.2.src.rpm Mandriva Business Server 1/X86_64: 9b560a6a59e88e6530480fd00c5d28bc mbs1/x86_64/python-django-1.3.7-1.2.mbs1.noarch.rpm 0a83da2368e8d27c1a4e4131341cb935 mbs1/SRPMS/python-django-1.3.7-1.2.mbs1.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
