Vulnerability Assessment Details

[DSA1034] DSA-1034-1 horde2

Vulnerability Assessment Summary
DSA-1034-1 horde2

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Horde web
application framework, which may lead to the execution of arbitrary
web script code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
identifies the following problems:
Null characters in the URL parameter bypass a sanity check, which
permited remote attackers to read arbitrary files, which permited
information disclosure.
User input in the help viewer was passed unsanitised to the eval()
function, which permited injection of arbitrary web code.
The old stable distribution (woody) doesn't contain horde2 packages.
For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in
version 2.2.8-1sarge2.
The unstable distribution (sid) does no longer contain horde2 packages.
We recommend that you upgrade your horde2 package.
