Debian Security Advisories

DSA-3097 unbound – security update

Florian Maury from ANSSI discovered that unbound, a validating,
recursive, and caching DNS resolver, was prone to a denial of service
vulnerability. An attacker crafting a malicious zone and able to emit
(or make emit) queries to the server can trick the resolver into
following an endless series of delegations, leading to ressource
exhaustion and huge network usage.

DSA-3092 icedove – security update

Multiple security issues have been found in Icedove, Debian’s version of
the Mozilla Thunderbird mail and news client: Multiple memory safety
errors, buffer overflows, use-after-frees and other implementation errors
may lead to the execution of arbitrary code, the bypass of security
restrictions or denial of service.

DSA-3090 iceweasel – security update

Multiple security issues have been found in Iceweasel, Debian’s version
of the Mozilla Firefox web browser: Multiple memory safety errors, buffer
overflows, use-after-frees and other implementation errors may lead to
the execution of arbitrary code, the bypass of security restrictions or
denial of service.
