    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : apr-util
    Vulnerability : denial of service
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2009-0023

    Apr-util, the Apache Portable Runtime Utility library, is used by
    Apache 2.x, Subversion, and other applications. Two denial of service vulnerabilities have been found in apr-util:

    "kcope" discovered a flaw in the handling of internal XML entities in
    the apr_xml_* interface that can be exploited to use all available
    memory. This denial of service can be triggered remotely in the Apache
    mod_dav and mod_dav_svn modules. (No CVE id yet)

    Matthew Palmer discovered an underflow flaw in the
    apr_strmatch_precompile function that can be exploited to cause a
    daemon crash. The vulnerability can be triggered (1) remotely in
    mod_dav_svn for Apache if the "SVNMasterURI"directive is in use, (2)
    remotely in mod_apreq2 for Apache or other applications using
    libapreq2, or (3) locally in Apache by a crafted ".htaccess" file. (CVE-2009-0023)

    Other exploit paths in other applications using apr-util may exist.

    If you use Apache, or if you use svnserve in standalone mode, you need
    to restart the services after you upgraded the libaprutil1 package.


    For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in
    version 1.2.12+dfsg-8+lenny2.

    The oldstable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
    version 1.2.7+dfsg-2+etch2.

    For the testing distribution (squeeze) and the unstable distribution
    (sid), these problems will be fixed soon.

    We recommend that you upgrade your apr-util packages.

    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

    You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
    footer to the proper configuration.
