Latest Secunia Security Advisories
Highly critical
- Gentoo update for pound fixes a vulnerability, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
- Mandriva update for xpm fixes a vulnerability, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
Less critical
- Gentoo updates for horde, horde-vacation, horde-turba, horde-passwd, horde-nag, horde-mnemo, horde-kronolith, horde-imp, horde-accounts, horde-forwards and horde-chora. These fix a vulnerability, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
- Gentoo: A security issue has been reported in phpmyadmin, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to disclose sensitive information.
The problem is that the file "[version]_create.sql" is left world-readable with the password for the pma user after the installation process.
Solution:
Change password for the MySQL pma user (see original advisory) and update to "dev-db/phpmyadmin-2.6.2-r1" or later. - Mandriva update for perl fixes a vulnerability, which potentially can be exploited by malicious, local users to gain escalated privileges.
- Mandriva update for squid fixes two vulnerabilities, which can be exploited by malicious people to gain knowledge of sensitive information or cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
