Debian Security Advisory DSA-1958-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Raphael Geissert
December 29, 2009 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : libtool
Vulnerability : privilege escalation
Problem type : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2009-3736

It was discovered that ltdl, a system-independent dlopen wrapper for
GNU libtool, can be tricked to load and run modules from an arbitrary
directory, which might be used to execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the user running an application that uses libltdl.


For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.5.26-4+lenny1.

For the oldstable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.5.22-4+etch1.

For the testing distribution (squeeze) and unstable distribution (sid),
this problem has been fixed in 2.2.6b-1.


We recommend that you upgrade your libtool packages.


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.
