Detail

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 13.04 - Ubuntu 12.10 - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

Summary:

HAProxy could be made to crash if it received specially crafted network traffic.

Software Description: - haproxy: fast and reliable load balancing reverse proxy

Details:

David Torgerson discovered that HAProxy incorrectly parsed certain HTTP headers. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause HAProxy to stop responding, resulting in a denial of service.

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:

Ubuntu 13.04:
haproxy 1.4.18-0ubuntu3.1

Ubuntu 12.10:
