Debian DLA-424-1 : didiwiki security update

high Nessus Plugin ID 88887

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

Alexander Izmailov discovered that didiwiki, a wiki implementation, failed to correctly validate user-supplied input, thus allowing a malicious user to access any part of the filesystem.

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 didiwiki package.
