    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian Security Advisory DSA-1895-1 [email protected] http://www.debian.org/security/ Florian Weimer September 24, 2009 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : xmltooling
    Vulnerability : several
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no

    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the xmltooling packages,
    as used by Shibboleth:

    Chris Ries discovered that decoding a crafted URL leads to a crash (and potentially, arbitrary code execution).

    Ian Young discovered that embedded NUL characters in certificate names
    were not correctly handled, exposing configurations using PKIX trust
    validation to impersonation attacks.

    Incorrect processing of SAML metadata ignores key usage constraints.
    This minor issue also needs a correction in the opensaml2 packages,
    which will be provided in an upcoming stable point release (and,
    before that, via stable-proposed-updates).

    For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in
    version 1.0-2+lenny1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
    version 1.2.2-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your xmltooling 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
    will install corrected packages

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