    Package : lighttpd
    Vulnerability : several issues
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2009-3555 CVE-2012-4929
    Debian Bug : 700399

    Several vulnerabilities were discovered in the TLS/SSL protocol. This
    update addresses these protocol vulnerabilities in lighttpd.

    CVE-2009-3555

    Marsh Ray, Steve Dispensa, and Martin Rex discovered that the TLS
    and SSLv3 protocols do not properly associate renegotiation
    handshakes with an existing connection, which allows man-in-the-middle
    attackers to insert data into HTTPS sessions. This issue is solved
    in lighttpd by disabling client initiated renegotiation by default.

    Those users that do actually need such renegotiations, can reenable
    them via the new 'ssl.disable-client-renegotiation' parameter.

    CVE-2012-4929

    Juliano Rizzo and Thai Duong discovered a weakness in the TLS/SSL
    protocol when using compression. This side channel attack, dubbed
    'CRIME', allows eavesdroppers to gather information to recover the
    original plaintext in the protocol. This update disables compression.

    For the stable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in version 1.4.28-2+squeeze1.2.

    For the testing distribution (wheezy), and the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 1.4.30-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your lighttpd packages.
