Debian DSA-3391-1 : php-horde - security update

medium Nessus Plugin ID 86713

Synopsis

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

Description

It was discovered that the web-based administration interface in the Horde Application Framework did not guard against Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks. As a result, other, malicious web pages could cause Horde applications to perform actions as the Horde user.

The oldstable distribution (wheezy) did not contain php-horde packages.

Solution

Upgrade the php-horde packages.

For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in version 5.2.1+debian0-2+deb8u2.
