    Package : libsoup2.4
    Vulnerability : insufficient input sanitization
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    Debian bug : 635837
    CVE IDs : CVE-2011-2524

    It was discovered that libsoup2.4, a HTTP library implementation in C, is
    not properly validating input when processing requests made to SoupServer.
    A remote attacker can exploit this flaw to access system files via a
    directory traversal attack.

    For the oldstable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.4.1-2+lenny1.

    For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.30.2-1+squeeze1.

    For the testing distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.34.3-1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.34.3-1.


    We recommend that you upgrade your libsoup2.4 packages.
