Debian DLA-2505-1 : spip security update

critical Nessus Plugin ID 144595

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

It was found that spip, a website engine for publishing, did not correctly validate its input (couleur, display, display_navigation, display_outils, imessage, and spip_ecran) allowing authenticated users to execute arbitrary code.

For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version 3.1.4-4~deb9u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your spip packages.

For the detailed security status of spip please refer to its security tracker page at: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/spip

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.
