Debian Security Advisory DSA-138-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Wichert Akkerman
August 1, 2002
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------


Package : gallery
Problem type : remote exploit
Debian-specific: no

A problem was found in gallery (a web-based photo album toolkit): it
was possible to pass in the GALLERY_BASEDIR variable remotely. This
made it possible to execute commands under the uid of web-server.

This has been fixed in version 1.2.5-7 of the Debian package and upstream
version 1.3.1.


- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Obtaining updates:

By hand:
wget URL
will fetch the file for you.
dpkg -i FILENAME.deb
will install the fetched file.

With apt:
deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main
added to /etc/apt/sources.list will provide security updates

Additional information can be found on the Debian security web-pages
at http://www.debian.org/security/
