Debian DLA-1975-1 : spip security update

medium Nessus Plugin ID 130348

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

It was discovered that SPIP, a website engine for publishing, would allow unauthenticated users to modify published content and write to the database, perform cross-site request forgeries, and enumerate registered users.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 3.0.17-2+deb8u5.

We recommend that you upgrade your spip 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 spip package.
