<br><dt>More information:</dt>
<dd>Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña discovered various vulnerabilities in cgiwrap: <br>
<br>
Minimum UID does not include all system users <br>
<br>
The CGIwrap program will not seteuid itself to uids below the 'minimum' uid <br>
to prevent scripts from being misused to compromise the system. However, <br>
the Debian package sets the minimum uid to 100 when it should be 1000. <br>
<br>
CGIs can be used to disclose system information <br>
<br>
The cgiwrap (and php-cgiwrap) package installs some debugging CGIs <br>
(actually symbolink links, which link to cgiwrap and are called 'cgiwrap' <br>
and 'nph-cgiwrap' or link to php-cgiwrap). These CGIs should not be <br>
installed in production environments as they disclose internal and <br>
potentially sensible information. <br>
</dd>
<br><dt>For the testing distribution (etch) this is fixed in version 3.9-3.0etch1</dt>
<dt>For the unstable distribution (sid) this is fixed in version 3.9-3.1</dt>
<br><dt>This upgrade is recommended if you use cgiwrap.<dt>
<br><dt>If you have the secure testing lines in your sources.list, you can update by running this command as root:</dt>
<dt>If you use cgiwrap:</dt>
<dd>apt-get update && apt-get install cgiwrap</dd>
<dd>If you use php-cgiwrap:<dd>
<dt>apt-get update && apt-get install php-cgiwrap</dt>
<br>
<dt>The Debian testing security team does not track security issues for then stable (sarge) and oldstable (woody) distributions. If stable is vulnerable, the Debian security team will make an announcement once a fix is ready.</dt>
<br>
<dt>To use the Debian testing security archive, add the following lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list:<dt>
<br>
<dd>deb http://secure-testing-mirrors.debian.net/debian-security-updates etch-proposed-updates/security-updates main contrib non-free</dd>
<dd>deb-src http://secure-testing-mirrors.debian.net/debian-security-updates etch-proposed-updates/security-updates main contrib non-free</dd>
