Debian DSA-1129-1 : osiris - format string

high Nessus Plugin ID 22671

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

Ulf Harnhammar and Max Vozeler from the Debian Security Audit Project have found several format string security bugs in osiris, a network-wide system integrity monitor control interface. A remote attacker could exploit them and cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.

Solution

Upgrade the osiris packages.

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 4.0.6-1sarge1.
