-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA-2506-1 security@debian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Yves-Alexis Perez July 02, 2012 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : libapache-mod-security Vulnerability : modsecurity bypass Problem type : remote Debian-specific: no CVE ID : CVE-2012-2751 Debian Bug : #678529 Qualys Vulnerability & Malware Research Labs discovered a vulnerability in ModSecurity, a security module for the Apache webserver. In situations where both 'Content:Disposition: attachment' and 'Content-Type: multipart' were present in HTTP headers, the vulernability could allow an attacker to bypass policy and execute cross-site script (XSS) attacks through properly crafted HTML documents. For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 2.5.12-1+squeeze1. For the testing distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 2.6.6-1. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 2.6.6-1. In testing and unstable distribution, the source package has been renamed to modsecurity-apache. We recommend that you upgrade your libapache-mod-security packages.
