Detail

A design error has been discovered in the Albatross web application toolkit that causes user supplied data to be used as part of template execution and hence arbitrary code execution.

The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain albatross packages.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 1.20-2.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 1.33-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your albatross package.

Id Description
22451 Albatross Template Manipulation Arbitrary Command Execution

Albatross contains a flaw that may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands. The issue is due to the application not properly sanitizing user input supplied for execution in a template. This may allow an attacker to insert arbitrary Python code which will be executed by the vulnerable script.
