    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian Security Advisory DSA-1904-1 [email protected] http://www.debian.org/security/ Giuseppe Iuculano
    October 09, 2009 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : wget
    Vulnerability : insufficient input validation
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    Debian bug : 549293
    CVE ID : CVE-2009-3490


    Daniel Stenberg discovered that wget, a network utility to retrieve files from the Web using http(s) and ftp, is vulnerable to the "Null Prefix Attacks Against
    SSL/TLS Certificates" published at the Blackhat conference some time ago. This allows an attacker to perform undetected man-in-the-middle attacks via a crafted
    ITU-T X.509 certificate with an injected null byte in the Common Name field.


    For the oldstable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.10.2-2+etch1.

    For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.11.4-2+lenny1.

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

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.12-1.


    We recommend that you upgrade your wget 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.
