Debian DLA-2258-1 : zziplib security update

medium Nessus Plugin ID 137861

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

Several issues have been fixed in zziplib, a library providing read access on ZIP-archives. They are basically all related to invalid memory access and resulting crash or memory leak.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 0.13.62-3+deb8u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your zziplib 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.
