Debian: New trac packages fix cross-site request forgery
Summary
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------Debian Security Advisory DSA 1209-2 security@debian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Moritz Muehlenhoff November 12th, 2006 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - --------------------------------------------------------------------------Package : trac Vulnerability : cross-site request forgery Problem-Type : remote Debian-specific: no The Trac update in DSA 1209 introduced a regression. This update corrects this flaw. For completeness, the original advisory text below: It was discovered that Trac, a wiki and issue tracking system for software development projects, performs insufficient validation against cross-site request forgery, which might lead to an attacker being able to perform manipulation of a Trac site with the privileges of the attacked Trac user. For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 0.8.1-3sarge6. For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 0.10.1-1. We recommend that you upgrade your trac package. Upgrade Instructions - --------------------wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file.
