Debian Security Advisory DSA 1033-1                    security@debian.org

Package        : horde3
Vulnerability  : several
Problem-Type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CVE-2005-4190 CVE-2006-1260 CVE-2006-1491
Debian Bug     : 361967

Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Horde web
application framework, which may lead to the execution of arbitrary 
web script code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
identifies the following problems:

CVE-2005-4190

    Several Cross-Site-Scripting vulnerabilities have been discovered in
    the "share edit window".

CVE-2006-1260

    Null characters in the URL parameter bypass a sanity check, which
    allowed remote attackers to read arbitrary files, which allowed
    information disclosure.

CVE-2006-1491

    User input in the help viewer was passed unsanitised to the eval()
    function, which allowed injection of arbitrary web code.    


The old stable distribution (woody) doesn't contain horde3 packages.

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in
version 3.0.4-4sarge3.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in
version 3.1.1-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your horde3 package.


Upgrade Instructions
- --------------------

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
        will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
        will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
