| Description: | Matt Lewis discovered that the memory management code in the Apache Portable Runtime library does not guard against a wrap-around during size computations. This could cause the library to return a memory area which smaller than requested, resulting a heap overflow and possibly arbitrary code execution. For the old stable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 1.2.7-9 of the apr package, and version 1.2.7+dfsg-2+etch3 of the apr-util package. For the stable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 1.2.12-5+lenny1 of the apr package and version 1.2.12-5+lenny1 of the apr-util package. For the unstable distribution, this problem will be fixed soon. We recommend that you upgrade your APR packages. |
