[DLA 492-1] pdns security update

Package : pdns
Version : 3.1-4.1+deb7u1
CVE ID : CVE-2014-7210

It was discovered that the maintainer scripts of pdns-backend-mysql
grant too wide database permissions for the pdns user. Other backends
are not affected.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
3.1-4.1+deb7u1.

Note that if you're running the pdns server with the mysql backend these
additional grants are not removed automatically since they might have
been added on purpose. Check

/usr/share/doc/pdns-backend-mysql/NEWS.Debian.gz

on how to remove them.

We recommend that you upgrade your pdns packages.

Package : openafs
Version : 1.6.1-3+deb7u6
CVE ID : CVE-2015-8312 CVE-2016-2860 CVE-2016-4536

* CVE-2015-8312:
Off-by-one error in afs_pioctl.c in OpenAFS before 1.6.16 might allow
local users to cause a denial of service (memory overwrite and system
crash) via a pioctl with an input buffer size of 4096 bytes.

* CVE-2016-2860:
The newEntry function in ptserver/ptprocs.c in OpenAFS before 1.6.17
allows remote authenticated users from foreign Kerberos realms to
bypass intended access restrictions and create arbitrary groups as
administrators by leveraging mishandling of the creator ID.

* CVE-2016-4536:
The client in OpenAFS before 1.6.17 does not properly initialize the
(1) AFSStoreStatus, (2) AFSStoreVolumeStatus, (3) VldbListByAttributes,
and (4) ListAddrByAttributes structures, which might allow remote
attackers to obtain sensitive memory information by leveraging access
to RPC call traffic.


For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
1.6.1-3+deb7u6.

We recommend that you upgrade your openafs packages.
