Secure testing team - Nov 2010 - Bug#605484: libapache2-mod-fcgid: stack overwrite vulnerability

Package: libapache2-mod-fcgid
Version: 1:2.2-1
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: user security hole

This was reported in CVE-2010-3872.  Information at:

http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-3872

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=49406

Of particular note, the code in question appears at line 86 in the
lenny version, and is:

                memcpy(&header + hasread, buffer, putsize);


Our versions in lenny and lenny-backports are both vulnerable.
squeeze and sid are running new enough versions that they aren''t.
