-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA-4253-1 security@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.debian.org/security/ Salvatore Bonaccorso July 23, 2018 https://www.debian.org/security/faq - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : network-manager-vpnc CVE ID : CVE-2018-10900 Debian Bug : 904255 Denis Andzakovic discovered that network-manager-vpnc, a plugin to provide VPNC support for NetworkManager, is prone to a privilege escalation vulnerability. A newline character can be used to inject a Password helper parameter into the configuration data passed to vpnc, allowing a local user with privileges to modify a system connection to execute arbitrary commands as root. For the stable distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in version 1.2.4-4+deb9u1. We recommend that you upgrade your network-manager-vpnc packages. For the detailed security status of network-manager-vpnc please refer to its security tracker page at: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/network-manager-vpnc Further information about Debian Security Advisories, how to apply these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found at: https://www.debian.org/security/ Mailing list: debian-security-announce@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQKTBAEBCgB9FiEERkRAmAjBceBVMd3uBUy48xNDz0QFAltWQhJfFIAAAAAALgAo aXNzdWVyLWZwckBub3RhdGlvbnMub3BlbnBncC5maWZ0aGhvcnNlbWFuLm5ldDQ2 NDQ0MDk4MDhDMTcxRTA1NTMxRERFRTA1NENCOEYzMTM0M0NGNDQACgkQBUy48xND z0SKCw//VcNh7gs/gMCYvTOr3+nN0GCSpvDEif63vC9quWGN2KvBclc927tpajgV eAbYAW+Wr7mm/IV7g0nLR5WK51qnJ6QAevJmkYKWzAQpDnDM85UkNvcYkgbZ7Btp BMw+1e7EQv/C94nKw9KARZjco8/bo6L5A2AF59HLYAK5BjRblCWyc5dqDSj4gylE EQUdkODJPuH7s35LUqRhsTvUiQRPaOjZ0oDIkhC44GkWPnwy5yljmRPq54mqhMYU +NrDQjKwW1eMBNrF8/BrQq0CHP8sxftlvcgMoJzwK0YX8mS3nfhtnQRbMeBWSkId FYkHFOCdExyZDJ145NQPeVFmHj1qHElcr2swqQg1QmH4twkDhGU90zJBNwOzPTn4 7XQYeH4o29TSNMYC5b/3OpVdrq6BlVMJjTVz92yfaMO2h0ypTqyoBYQ72kZLS9kG PkKCL1WQWSdVJ4VNqufUiBrJNVREiSeOs00f3uBYgWYocX40b679pm8YbaQj/mUZ NIVlPJvlrhA7UkJv5VDOZyc6DPbVnLZGB8X14+L86D98JKtfbE/RnW+m2FUkwKEW 462OYIdudV0fDDneDD2e87p8DDdTIMwgO1Smgj8062RMhiv/L6FL/5XUxr1DMS6U AQLfdnpEf3Am6cL6FTIsj53SAmh1L9B3EHEkAPH7AxX/pogBlGU= =VkVy -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
