-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2014:137 http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : apache-mod_wsgi Date : July 11, 2014 Affected: Business Server 1.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Multiple vulnerabilities has been discovered and corrected in apache-mod_wsgi: It was found that mod_wsgi did not properly drop privileges if the call to setuid\(\) failed. If mod_wsgi was set up to allow unprivileged users to run WSGI applications, a local user able to run a WSGI application could possibly use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system (CVE-2014-0240). It was discovered that mod_wsgi could leak memory of a hosted web application via the Content-Type header. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to disclose limited portions of the web application's memory (CVE-2014-0242). The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-0240 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-0242 https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2014-0788.html _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Business Server 1/X86_64: b0dab0032790662dce72017097844afb mbs1/x86_64/apache-mod_wsgi-3.3-7.1.mbs1.x86_64.rpm 8f2adb300f9170b623cf4be749a31f60 mbs1/SRPMS/apache-mod_wsgi-3.3-7.1.mbs1.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
