Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

Christoph Martin discovered that incorrect ACL processing in TinyProxy, a lightweight, non-caching, optionally anonymizing HTTP proxy, could lead to unintended network access rights.

The oldstable distribution (lenny) is not affected.

Upgrade the tinyproxy packages.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 1.8.2-1squeeze1.
