Debian DLA-1239-1 : poco security update

medium Nessus Plugin ID 105734

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

The ZipCommon::isValidPath() function in Zip/src/ZipCommon.cpp in POCO C++ Libraries before 1.8 does not properly restrict the filename value in the ZIP header, which allows attackers to conduct absolute path traversal attacks during the ZIP decompression, and possibly create or overwrite arbitrary files, via a crafted ZIP file, related to a 'file path injection vulnerability'.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 1.3.6p1-4+deb7u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your poco packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
