Fix CVE-2011-2524

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

libsoup is an HTTP client/library implementation for GNOME.

A directory traversal flaw was found in libsoup's SoupServer. If an application used SoupServer to implement an HTTP service, a remote attacker who is able to connect to that service could use this flaw to access any local files accessible to that application via a specially crafted request. (CVE-2011-2524)

All users of libsoup should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to resolve this issue. All running applications using libsoup's SoupServer must be restarted for the update to take effect.

The remote Oracle Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ELSA-2011-1102 advisory.

    [2.28.2-1.1]
    - Patch for CVE-2011-2524

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Oracle Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

This update of libsoup fixes a directory traversal attack that affect application using the library. CVE-2011-2524: CVSS v2 Base Score: 5.0 (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N)

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201412-09 (Multiple packages, Multiple vulnerabilities fixed in 2011)

    A context-dependent attacker may be able to gain escalated privileges,       execute arbitrary code, cause Denial of Service, obtain sensitive       information, or otherwise bypass security restrictions.
  Workaround :

    There are no known workarounds at this time.

It was discovered that libsoup, a HTTP library implementation in C, is not properly validating input when processing requests made to SoupServer. A remote attacker can exploit this flaw to access system files via a directory traversal attack.

The remote Solaris system is missing necessary patches to address security updates :

  - Directory traversal vulnerability in soup-uri.c in     SoupServer in libsoup before 2.35.4 allows remote     attackers to read arbitrary files via a %2e%2e (encoded     dot dot) in a URI. (CVE-2011-2524)
