Debian DSA-3502-1 : roundup - security update

medium Nessus Plugin ID 89121

Synopsis

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

Description

Ralf Schlatterbeck discovered an information leak in roundup, a web-based issue tracking system. An authenticated attacker could use it to see sensitive details about other users, including their hashed password.

After applying the update, which will fix the shipped templates, the site administrator should ensure the instanced versions (in /var/lib/roundup usually) are also updated, either by patching them manually or by recreating them.

More info can be found in the upstream documentation at http://www.roundup-tracker.org/docs/upgrading.html#user-data-visibilit y

Solution

Upgrade the roundup packages.

For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 1.4.20-1.1+deb7u1.

For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in version 1.4.20-1.1+deb8u1.
