Detail

It was discovered that a NULL pointer dereference in the Nginx code responsible for saving client request bodies to a temporary file might result in denial of service: Malformed requests could crash worker processes.

For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in version 1.6.2-5+deb8u2.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 1.10.1-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your nginx packages.
