Detail

A problem with the build system of the nagios-plugins package from old stable (Sarge) lead to check_procs not being included for the i386 architecture. This update fixes this regression. For reference the original advisory text below:

Several local/remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in two of the plugins for the Nagios network monitoring and management system. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

CVE-2007-5198

A buffer overflow has been discovered in the parser for HTTP Location headers (present in the check_http module).

CVE-2007-5623

A buffer overflow has been discovered in the check_snmp module.

For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 1.4.5-1etch1.

For the old stable distribution (sarge), these problems have been fixed in version 1.4-6sarge2.

We recommend that you upgrade your nagios-plugins package.

Id Description
41639 Nagios Plugins check_http.c redir Function Location Header Response Overflow

A remote overflow exists in Nagios Plugins. Nagios Plugins fails to check for a boundary in check_http.c in the redir function caused by an overly long HTTP location header response resulting in a buffer overflow. With a specially crafted request, an attacker can cause arbitrary code execution resulting in a loss of integrity.
