Description David Walser 2012-03-23 14:29:50 CET
Mandriva has issued this advisory today (March 23):
http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/advisories/?dis=2010.1&name=MDVSA-2012:036

I don't think Cauldron is vulnerable.
Comment 1 David Walser 2012-03-23 14:56:36 CET
Looks like dmorgan added a patch for this in SVN 7 months ago, but didn't submit it to the build system.

CC: (none) => dmorganec

Comment 2 David Walser 2012-03-23 15:00:06 CET
I've confirmed Cauldron is not vulnerable.
Comment 3 David Walser 2012-03-23 16:00:16 CET
Looks like it was built afterall, but schedbot hadn't marked it in SVN for some reason.  No bug had been filed, so here we go.  (Confirmed with dmorgan on IRC that this is ready to go.)

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

Updated libsoup packages fix security vulnerability:

Directory traversal vulnerability in soup-uri.c in SoupServer in
libsoup before 2.35.4 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files
via a %2e%2e (encoded dot dot) in a URI (CVE-2011-2524).

Testing complete on i586 for the srpm
libsoup-2.32.2-4.1.mga1.src.rpm

Just testing using hardinfo under strace, which shows
19734 open("/usr/lib/libsoup-2.4.so.1", O_RDONLY) = 3

Testing for some weeks the lib without issue.
