------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian Security Advisory DSA-1492-1 security@debian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Moritz Muehlenhoff February 10, 2008 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package        : wml
Vulnerability  : insecure temporary files
Problem type   : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s)      : CVE-2008-0665 CVE-2008-0666 
Debian Bug     : 463907

Frank Lichtenheld and Nico Golde discovered that WML, an off-line HTML generation toolkit, creates insecure temporary files in the eperl and ipp backends and in the wmg.cgi script, which could lead to local denial of service by overwriting files.

For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 2.0.11-1etch1.

The old stable distribution (sarge) is not affected.

We recommend that you upgrade your wml 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

Do you need help?

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.
