Debian Security Advisory DSA-2765-2 security@debian.org

Package : davfs2
Vulnerability : privilege escalation
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2013-4362
Debian Bug : 723034
The update released for davfs2 in DSA 2765 had a version number for
Debian 7 "wheezy" that sorts lower than the version in Debian 6
"squeeze", causing problems on upgrades. This update makes a package
of davfs2 in wheezy available which corrects only the version number.
For reference, the original advisory follows.
Davfs2, a filesystem client for WebDAV, calls the function system()
insecurely while is setuid root. This might allow a privilege escalation.
For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.4.6-1.1+wheezy1.
