Debian DLA-2122-1 : libusbmuxd security update

medium Nessus Plugin ID 134125

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

It was discovered that libusbmuxd incorrectly handled socket permissions. A remote attacker could use this issue to access services on iOS devices, contrary to expectations.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', this problem has been fixed in version 1.0.9-1+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libusbmuxd 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.
