A new libapache2-mod-auth-pgsql vulnerability update is available for Ubuntu Linux. Here the announcement:
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-239-1 January 09, 2006
libapache2-mod-auth-pgsql vulnerability
CVE-2005-3656
===========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:
Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog)
Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog)
Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger)
The following packages are affected:
libapache2-mod-auth-pgsql
The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 2.0.2b1-2ubuntu0.1 (for Ubuntu 4.10), 2.0.2b1-5ubuntu0.1 (for
Ubuntu 5.04), or 2.0.2b1-6ubuntu0.1 (for Ubuntu 5.10). After a
standard system upgrade you need to restart the Apache 2 server to
effect the necessary changes:
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Details follow:
Several format string vulnerabilities were discovered in the error
logging handling. By sending specially crafted user names, an
unauthenticated remote attacker could exploit this to crash the Apache
server or possibly even execute arbitrary code with the privileges of
Apache (user 'www-data').
