Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in phpBB, a web
based bulletin board. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
identifies the following problems:

  • CVE-2008-0471
    Private messaging allowed cross site request forgery, making
    it possible to delete all private messages of a user by sending
    them to a crafted web page.
  • CVE-2006-6841 / CVE-2006-6508
    Cross site request forgery enabled an attacker to perform various
    actions on behalf of a logged in user. (Applies to sarge only.)
  • CVE-2006-6840
    A negative start parameter could allow an attacker to create
    invalid output. (Applies to sarge only.)
  • CVE-2006-6839
    Redirection targets were not fully checked, leaving room for
    unauthorised external redirections via a phpBB forum.
    (Applies to sarge only.)
  • CVE-2006-4758
    An authenticated forum administrator may upload files of any
    type by using specially crafted filenames. (Applies to sarge only.)

For the old stable distribution (sarge), these problems have been
fixed in version 2.0.13+1-6sarge4.

For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed
in version 2.0.21-7.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed
