    Package : freeradius
    CVE ID : CVE-2017-10978 CVE-2017-10979 CVE-2017-10980 CVE-2017-10981
    CVE-2017-10982 CVE-2017-10983 CVE-2017-10984 CVE-2017-10985
    CVE-2017-10986 CVE-2017-10987
    Debian Bug : 868765

    Guido Vranken discovered that FreeRADIUS, an open source
    implementation of RADIUS, the IETF protocol for AAA (Authorisation, Authentication, and Accounting), did not properly handle memory when
    processing packets. This would allow a remote attacker to cause a denial-of-service by application crash, or potentially execute
    arbitrary code.

    All those issues are covered by this single DSA, but it's worth noting
    that not all issues affect all releases:

    - CVE-2017-10978 and CVE-2017-10983 affect both jessie and stretch

    - CVE-2017-10979, CVE-2017-10980, CVE-2017-10981 and CVE-2017-10982
    affect only jessie

    - CVE-2017-10984, CVE-2017-10985, CVE-2017-10986 and CVE-2017-10987
    affect only stretch.

    For the oldstable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed
    in version 2.2.5+dfsg-0.2+deb8u1.

    For the stable distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed in version 3.0.12+dfsg-5+deb9u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your freeradius packages.
