- A problem with wwwoffle has been discovered. The web proxy didn\'t
- handle input data with negative Content-Length settings properly which
- causes the processing child to crash. It is at this time not obvious
- how this can lead to an exploitable vulnerability; however, it\'s better
- to be safe than sorry, so here\'s an update.
- Additionally, in the woody version empty passwords will be treated as
- wrong when trying to authenticate. In the woody version we also
- replaced CanonicaliseHost() with the latest routine from 2.7d, offered
- by upstream. This stops bad IPv6 format IP addresses in URLs from
- causing problems (memory overwriting, potential exploits).
- This problem has been fixed in version 2.5c-10.4 for the old stable
- distribution (potato), in version 2.7a-1.2 for the current stable
- distribution (woody) and in version 2.7d-1 for the unstable
- distribution (sid).
- We recommend that you upgrade your wwwoffle packages.
