[guru-merlin] [koon@gentoo.org: [ GLSA 200508-20 ] phpGroupWare: Multiple vulnerabilities]
DATE: Wed, 31 Aug 2005 10:53:17 +0200
A phpGroupWare csomag javított verzióját hozta ki a Gentoo project. A
hiba egyrészt magában a csomagban volt (az egyik paramétert nem ellenőrzi
kellő módon), a másik hiba pedig a szokásos XML-RPC probléma.

Synopsis
========
phpGroupWare is vulnerable to multiple issues ranging from information
disclosure to a potential execution of arbitrary code.
Background
==========
phpGroupWare is a multi-user groupware suite written in PHP.
Affected packages
=================
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 www-apps/phpgroupware < 0.9.16.008 >= 0.9.16.008
Description
===========
phpGroupWare improperly validates the "mid" parameter retrieved via a
forum post. The current version of phpGroupWare also adds several
safeguards to prevent XSS issues, and disables the use of a potentially
vulnerable XML-RPC library.
Impact
======
A remote attacker may leverage the XML-RPC vulnerability to execute
arbitrary PHP script code. He could also create a specially crafted
request that will reveal private posts.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All phpGroupWare users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/phpgroupware-0.9.16.008"
