Description David Walser 2015-09-17 20:27:56 CEST
Upstream has released new versions on September 15:
https://owncloud.org/blog/8-1-3-8-0-8-and-7-0-10-updates-ready-owncloud-appliance-with-owncloud-proxy-out/

I'm not sure if there are more security fixes in 8.0.8 vs. 8.0.6, as upstream waits forever to announce them, but 8.0.6 fixed two security issues vs. the 8.0.5 that we currently have:
https://owncloud.org/security/advisory/?id=oc-sa-2015-014
https://owncloud.org/security/advisory/?id=oc-sa-2015-015

The upstream changelog, of course, doesn't mention these anyway:
https://owncloud.org/changelog/

Updated packages uploaded for Mageia 5 and Cauldron.

Advisory to come later.

owncloud-8.0.8-1.mga5 from owncloud-8.0.8-1.mga5.src.rpm

Installed a freshcopy to 64-bit machine using sql-lite instead of MariaDB.  All worked fine.  I'm able to attach to it and use it.

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

Updated owncloud package fixes security vulnerabilities:

In ownCloud before 8.0.6, due to an incorrect usage of an ownCloud internal
file system function the passed path to the file scanner was resolved
relatively. An authenticated adversary may thus be able to get a listing of
directories (but not the containing files) existing on the filesystem.
However, it is not possible to access any of these files (CVE-2015-6500).

In ownCloud before 8.0.6, due to not properly checking the ownership of an
calendar, an authenticated attacker is able to download calendars of other
users via the âcalidâ GET parameter to export.php in /apps/calendar/
(CVE-2015-6670).

The owncloud package has been updated to version 8.0.8, which fixes these
issues, as well as other bugs and other not-yet-disclosed security issues.
