Debian DLA-376-1 : mono security update

medium Nessus Plugin ID 87682

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

Mono's string-to-double parser may crash, on specially crafted input.
This could theoretically lead to arbitrary code execution.

This issue has been fixed in Debian 6 Squeeze with the version 2.6.7-5.1+deb6u2 of mono. We recommend that you upgrade your mono packages.

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

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
