    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian Security Advisory DSA-1597-2 [email protected] http://www.debian.org/security/ Devin Carraway
    August 30, 2008 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : mt-daapd
    Vulnerability : multiple vulnerabilities
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Id(s) : CVE-2007-5824 CVE-2007-5825 CVE-2008-1771
    Debian Bug : 459961 476241 496217

    In DSA-1597-1, an update was announced for multiple vulnerabilities in
    the mt-daapd audio server. One of the fixes introduced a regression
    preventing successful authentication to the administration interface.
    An updated release is available which corrects this problem. For
    reference, the original advisory text follows.

    Three vulnerabilities have been discovered in the mt-daapd DAAP audio
    server (also known as the Firefly Media Server). The Common
    Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following three
    problems:

    CVE-2007-5824

    Insufficient validation and bounds checking of the Authorization:
    HTTP header enables a heap buffer overflow, potentially enabling
    the execution of arbitrary code.

    CVE-2007-5825

    Format string vulnerabilities in debug logging within the
    authentication of XML-RPC requests could enable the execution of
    arbitrary code.

    CVE-2008-1771

    An integer overflow weakness in the handling of HTTP POST
    variables could allow a heap buffer overflow and potentially
    arbitrary code execution.

    For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
    version 0.2.4+r1376-1.1+etch2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your mt-daapd package.
