It was discovered that there was an out-of-bounds read access in apr-util, a support/portability library used by many applications.

A local user with write access to the database could have made a process using these functions crash and thus cause a denial of service.

For Debian 7 ‘Wheezy’, this issue has been fixed in apr-util version 1.4.1-3+deb7u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your apr-util packages.

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