Description

Luis Merino, Markus Vervier and Eric Sesterhenn discovered that missing input sanitising in the Hylafax fax software could potentially result in the execution of arbitrary code via a malformed fax message.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', this problem has been fixed in version 3:6.0.6-6+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your hylafax 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.
