news 28 Posted February 15, 2014 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Debian Project http://www.debian.org/ Updated Debian 6.0: 6.0.9 released press ( -at -) debian.org February 15th, 2014 http://www.debian.org/News/2014/20140215 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Debian project is pleased to announce the ninth update of its oldstable distribution Debian 6.0 (codename "squeeze"). This update mainly adds corrections for security problems to the oldstable release, along with a few adjustments for serious problems. Security advisories were already published separately and are referenced where available. Please note that this update does not constitute a new version of Debian 6.0 but only updates some of the packages included. There is no need to throw away old "squeeze" CDs or DVDs but only to update via an up-to- date Debian mirror after an installation, to cause any out of date packages to be updated. Those who frequently install updates from security.debian.org won't have to update many packages and most updates from security.debian.org are included in this update. New installation media and CD and DVD images containing updated packages will be available soon at the regular locations. Upgrading to this revision online is usually done by pointing the aptitude (or apt) package tool (see the sources.list(5) manual page) to one of Debian's many FTP or HTTP mirrors. A comprehensive list of mirrors is available at: http://www.debian.org/mirror/list Miscellaneous Bugfixes ---------------------- This oldstable update adds a few important corrections to the following packages: +-----------------------------+---------------------------------------+ | Package | Reason | +-----------------------------+---------------------------------------+ | apache2 | Fix CVE-2013-1862 (RewriteLog | | | escaping), CVE-2013-1896 (mod_dav: | | | denial of service via MERGE request), | | | segfaults in certain error conditions | | base-files | Update for the point release | | chrony | Rebuild in a clean environment | | debian-installer | Rebuild for the point release | | debian-installer-netboot- | Rebuild for the point release | | images | | | ia32-libs | Update included packages from | | | oldstable / security.d.o | | ia32-libs-gtk | Update included packages from | | | oldstable / security.d.o | | librsvg | Fix new policy check for non-URIs; | | | fix CVE-2013-1881: disable loading of | | | external entities | | localepurge | Fix CVE-2014-1638 (insecure tempfile | | | usage) | | mapserver | Fix CVE-2013-7262, an SQL injection | | | vulnerability in the | | | msPostGISLayerSetTimeFilter function | | openttd | Fix CVE-2013-6411 (DoS) | | postgresql-8.4 | New upstream micro-release | | spip | Fix XSS on signature from author | | | [CVE-2013-7303] | | suds | Fix CVE-2013-2217 | | tzdata | New upstream release | | usemod-wiki | Update hardcoded cookie expiration | | | date from 2013 to 2025 | | xfce4-weather-plugin | Update weather.com API URI | +-----------------------------+---------------------------------------+ Security Updates ---------------- This revision adds the following security updates to the oldstable release.
