Detail
| Several local/remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in lighttpd, a fast webserver with minimal memory footprint. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2008-4298 A memory leak in the http_request_parse function could be used by remote attackers to cause lighttpd to consume memory, and cause a denial of service attack. CVE-2008-4359 Inconsistent handling of URL patterns could lead to the disclosure of resources a server administrator did not anticipate when using rewritten URLs. CVE-2008-4360 Upon file systems which don't handle case-insensitive paths differently it might be possible that unanticipated resources could be made available by mod_userdir. For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 1.4.13-4etch11. For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems will be fixed shortly. We recommend that you upgrade your lighttpd package. |
