Description David Walser 2013-10-12 01:37:51 CEST
Debian has issued an advisory tomorrow (October 12):
http://lists.debian.org/debian-security-announce/2013/msg00189.html

The issue was fixed upstream in 2.3.9.

Updated packages uploaded for Mageia 3 and Cauldron.

Patched package uploaded for Mageia 2.

Advisory:
========================

Updated apache-mod_fcgid package fixes security vulnerability:

Apache mod_fcgid before version 2.3.9 fails to perform adequate boundary checks
on user-supplied input. This may allow a remote attacker to cause a heap-based
buffer overflow, resulting in a denial of service or potentially allowing the
execution of arbitrary code (CVE-2013-4365).
