[GLSA-200411-07] Proxytunnel: Format string vulnerability |
||
Proxytunnel: Format string vulnerability Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200411-07 (Proxytunnel: Format string vulnerability) Florian Schilhabel of the Gentoo Linux Security Audit project found a format string vulnerability in Proxytunnel. When the program is started in daemon mode (-a [port]), it improperly logs invalid proxy answers to syslog. Impact A malicious remote server could send specially-crafted invalid answers to exploit the format string vulnerability, potentially permiting the execution of arbitrary code on the tunnelling host with the rights of the Proxytunnel process. Workaround You can mitigate the issue by only permiting connections to trusted remote servers.
