Debian DLA-1413-1 : dokuwiki security update

high Nessus Plugin ID 110926

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

The call parameter of /lib/exe/ajax.php in DokuWiki through 2017-02-19e does not properly encode user input, which leads to a reflected file download vulnerability, and allows remote attackers to run arbitrary programs.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 0.0.20140505.a+dfsg-4+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your dokuwiki 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 dokuwiki package.
