Synopsis
The remote Debian host is missing a security update.Description
The latest maintenance release of the VirtualBox (OSE) 3.2.x series (i.e., version 3.2.28) has been uploaded to Debian LTS (squeeze).Thanks to Gianfranco Costamagna for preparing packages for review and upload by the Debian LTS Team.
Unfortunately, Oracle no longer provides information on specific security vulnerabilities in VirtualBox, thus we provide their latest 3.2.28 maintenance release in Debian LTS (squeeze) directly.
CVE-2013-3792
Oracle reported an unspecified vulnerability in the Oracle VM VirtualBox component in Oracle Virtualization VirtualBox prior to 3.2.18, 4.0.20, 4.1.28, and 4.2.18 allows local users to affect availability via unknown vectors related to Core.
