Bug#463184: security.debian.org: wasn't CVE-2007-2645 fixed in DSA-1310-1?

2008-02-06 Thread Michael Gilbert
reopen 463184
thanks

 I've verified it in the source code:
 The correct patch was used to address CVE-2006-4168, only the wrong
 bug number was added to the DSA. Instead of #424775 this should've
 read #430012.

ok.  so, was the security issue described in bug #424775 actually ever
fixed?  looking at all of the DSAs since the beginning of 2006, i only
see the one upload of libexif (DSA-1310 -- which you now say fixed
only CVE-2006-4168).

did that upload of libexif actually address both CVE-2006-4168 and
CVE-2007-2645?  if so, then the DSA should be updated to indicate that
this is the case.  if not, then
http://idssi.enyo.de/tracker/status/release/unstable needs to be
updated to indicate that the CVE-2007-2645 vulnerability still exists
in the archive, and the fix (http://bugs.debian.org/424775) needs to
be uploaded as soon as possible.

thanks.

oops, i was looking at the unstable page.  CVE-2007-2645 is indeed
listed on the stable page
(http://idssi.enyo.de/tracker/status/release/stable).

btw, any chance of the fix getting uploaded to etch any time soon?

2008-01-29 Thread Michael Gilbert
Package: security.debian.org
Severity: grave

according to the bug report log [1], the 0.6.13-etch1 upload of
libexif12 fixed the security vulnerability described by CVE-2007-2645.
however, the associated DSA [2] says that the updload of 0.6.13-etch1 
fixed the vulnerability described by CVE-2006-4168.

it seems very likely someone mistakenly reversed the CVE numbers.  so it
is probably the case that CVE-2007-2645 was fixed long ago in etch,
and CVE-2006-4168 still remains unadressed.
