-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA-2434-1 security@debian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Luciano Bello March 19, 2012 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : nginx Vulnerability : sensitive information leak Problem type : remote Debian-specific: no CVE ID : CVE-2012-1180 Debian Bug : 664137 Matthew Daley discovered a memory disclosure vulnerability in nginx. In previous versions of this web server, an attacker can receive the content of previously freed memory if an upstream server returned a specially crafted HTTP response, potentially exposing sensitive information. For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 0.7.67-3+squeeze2. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 1.1.17-1. We recommend that you upgrade your nginx packages.
