    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian Security Advisory DSA-1679-1 [email protected] http://www.debian.org/security/ Florian Weimer December 03, 2008 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : awstats
    Vulnerability : cross-site scripting
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Id(s) : CVE-2008-3714
    Debian Bug : 495432

    Morgan Todd discovered a cross-site scripting vulnerability in awstats,
    a log file analyzer, involving the "config" request parameter (and
    possibly others; CVE-2008-3714).

    For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version 6.5+dfsg-1+etch1.

    The unstable (sid) and testing (lenny) distribution will be fixed soon.

    We recommend that you upgrade your awstats package.

    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
    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.
