    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian Security Advisory DSA-1757-1 [email protected] http://www.debian.org/security/ Steffen Joeris
    March 30, 2009 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : auth2db
    Vulnerability : SQL injection
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Id : no CVE id yet
    Debian Bug : 521823


    It was discovered that auth2db, an IDS logger, log viewer and alert
    generator, is prone to an SQL injection vulnerability, when used with
    multibyte character encodings.


    For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.2.5-2+dfsg-1+lenny1.

    The oldstable distribution (etch) doesn't contain auth2db.

    For the testing distribution (squeeze), this problem will be fixed soon.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.2.5-2+dfsg-1.1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your auth2db packages.
