Synopsis

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

Description

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in TYPO3, a content management system.

- CVE-2012-3527 An insecure call to unserialize in the help system enables arbitrary code execution by authenticated users.

- CVE-2012-3528 The TYPO3 backend contains several cross-site scripting vulnerabilities.

- CVE-2012-3529 Authenticated users who can access the configuration module can obtain the encryption key, allowing them to escalate their privileges.

- CVE-2012-3530 The RemoveXSS HTML sanitizer did not remove several HTML5 JavaScript, thus failing to mitigate the impact of cross-site scripting vulnerabilities.

Solution

Upgrade the typo3-src packages.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in version 4.3.9+dfsg1-1+squeeze5.
