Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Deserialization of untrusted data
EUVDB-ID: #VU10334
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 5.2 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9138
CWE-ID:
CWE-502 - Deserialization of Untrusted Data
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to unsafe handling of serialized data when processing property modification during __wakeup(). A remote attacker can pass specially crafted serialized data to the application and cause denial of service attack.
Update the affected package to version: 5.6.28+dfsg-0+deb8u1
Vulnerable software versionsDebian Linux: All versions

Q & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.
Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?
No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.
2) Resource exhaustion
EUVDB-ID: #VU12901
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 4.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9933
CWE-ID:
CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The weakness exists in the gdImageFillToBorder function in gd.c due to stack consumption. A remote attacker can submit a specially crafted imagefilltoborder call that triggers use of a negative color value and cause the service to crash.
Update the affected package to version: 5.6.28+dfsg-0+deb8u1

3) NULL pointer dereference
EUVDB-ID: #VU12902
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 4.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9934
CWE-ID:
CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The weakness exists in ext/wddx/wddx.c due to NULL pointer dereference. A remote attacker can submit crafted serialized data in a wddxPacket XML document, as demonstrated by a PDORow string, and cause the service to crash.
