    - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA-2011-1 [email protected] http://www.debian.org/security/ Nico Golde March 10th, 2010 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - --------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : dpkg
    Vulnerability : path traversal
    Problem type : local
    Debian-specific: yes
    Debian bug : none
    CVE ID : CVE-2010-0396

    William Grant discovered that the dpkg-source component of dpkg, the
    low-level infrastructure for handling the installation and removal of
    Debian software packages, is vulnerable to path traversal attacks.
    A specially crafted Debian source package can lead to file modification
    outside of the destination directory when extracting the package content.


    For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.14.29.

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

    We recommend that you upgrade your dpkg 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.
