Debian Security Advisory DSA-3636-1 [email protected]
https://www.debian.org/security/ Sebastien Delafond
July 30, 2016 https://www.debian.org/security/faq
Package : collectd
CVE ID : CVE-2016-6254
Debian Bug : 832507 832577
Emilien Gaspar discovered that collectd, a statistics collection and
monitoring daemon, incorrectly processed incoming network
packets. This resulted in a heap overflow, allowing a remote attacker
to either cause a DoS via application crash, or potentially execute
arbitrary code.
Additionally, security researchers at Columbia University and the
University of Virginia discovered that collectd failed to verify a
return value during initialization. This meant the daemon could
sometimes be started without the desired, secure settings.
For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in
version 5.4.1-6+deb8u1.
For the testing (stretch) and unstable (sid) distributions, this
problem has been fixed in version 5.5.2-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your collectd packages.
