    - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA-1987-1 [email protected] http://www.debian.org/security/ Nico Golde February 2nd, 2010 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - --------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : lighttpd
    Vulnerability : denial of service
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    Debian bug : none
    CVE ID : CVE-2010-0295

    Li Ming discovered that lighttpd, a small and fast webserver with minimal memory footprint, is vulnerable to a denial of service attack due to bad
    memory handling. Slowly sending very small chunks of request data causes lighttpd to allocate new buffers for each read instead of appending to
    old ones. An attacker can abuse this behaviour to cause denial of service conditions due to memory exhaustion.


    For the oldstable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.4.13-4etch12.

    For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.4.19-5+lenny1.

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


    We recommend that you upgrade your lighttpd 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.
