Debian is a free operating system (OS) for your server. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run. Debian uses the Linux kernel (the core of an operating system), but most of the basic OS tools come from the GNU project; hence the name GNU/Linux.

We know "The Debian Way". We are literally paving the Debian way so who else could manage your Debian based servers better?

Updated packages are now available to correct this issue. <p> <a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/DSA-5843-2">https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/DSA-5843-2</a>
DSA-5844-1 chromium - security update
Security issues were discovered in Chromium which could result in the execution of arbitrary code, denial of service, or information disclosure. <p> <a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/DSA-5844-1">https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/DSA-5844-1</a>
DSA-5843-1 rsync - security update
Several vulnerabilities were discovered in rsync, a fast, versatile, remote (and local) file-copying tool. <p> CVE-2024-12084 <p> Simon Scannell, Pedro Gallegos and Jasiel Spelman discovered a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability due to improper handling of attacker-controlled checksum lengths. A remote attacker can take advantage of this flaw for code execution. <p> CVE-2024-12085 <p> Simon Scannell, Pedro Gallegos and Jasiel Spelman reported a flaw in the way rsync compares file checksums, allowing a remote attacker to trigger an information leak. <p> CVE-2024-12086 <p> Simon Scannell, Pedro Gallegos and Jasiel Spelman discovered a flaw which would result in a server leaking contents of an arbitrary file from the client's machine. <p> CVE-2024-12087 <p> Simon Scannell, Pedro Gallegos and Jasiel Spelman reported a path traversal vulnerability in the rsync daemon affecting the --inc-recursive option, which could allow a server to write files outside of the client's intended destination directory. <p> CVE-2024-12088 <p> Simon Scannell, Pedro Gallegos and Jasiel Spelman reported that when using the --safe-links option, rsync fails to properly verify if a symbolic link destination contains another symbolic link with it, resulting in path traversal and arbitrary file write outside of the desired directory. <p> CVE-2024-12747 <p> Aleksei Gorban "loqpa" discovered a race condition when handling symbolic links resulting in an information leak which may enable escalation of privileges. <p> <a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/DSA-5843-1">https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/DSA-5843-1</a>
DSA-5842-1 openafs - security update
