Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

Fixes for CVE-2013-2240, CVE-2013-2241.

A security flaw was found in the way flowplayer SWF file handling functionality of Gallery version 3, an open source project with the goal to develop and support leading photo sharing web application solutions, processed certain URL fragments passed to this file (certain URL fragments were not stripped properly when these files were called via direct URL request(s)). A remote attacker could use this flaw to conduct replay attacks.

Multiple information exposure flaws were found in the way data rest core module of Gallery version 3, an open source project with the goal to develop and support leading photo sharing web application solutions, used to previously restrict access to certain items of the photo album. A remote attacker, valid Gallery 3 user, could use this flaw to possibly obtain sensitive information (file, resize or thumb path of the item in question).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected gallery3 package.
