Debian Security Advisory DSA 840-1                     security@debian.org

Package        : drupal
Vulnerability  : missing input sanitising
Problem-Type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CAN-2005-2498

Stefan Esser of the Hardened-PHP Project reported a serious vulnerablility
in the third-party XML-RPC library included with some Drupal versions.  An
attacker could execute arbitrary PHP code on a target site.  This update
pulls in the latest XML-RPC version from upstream.

The old stable distribution (woody) is not affected by this problem since
no drupal is included.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 4.5.3-4.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 4.5.5-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your drupal package.


Upgrade Instructions
- --------------------

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
        will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
        will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
