[IT-SecurityNotifies] Security update for Debian Testing - 2010-09-06

[Testing Security Team <secure-testing-team AT lists.alioth.debian.org>]

This automatic mail gives an overview over security issues that were recently 
fixed in Debian Testing. The majority of fixed packages migrate to testing 
from unstable. If this would take too long, fixed packages are uploaded to 
the 
testing-security repository instead. It can also happen that vulnerable 
packages are removed from Debian testing.

Migrated from unstable:
=======================
lynx-cur 2.8.8dev.5-1:
CVE-2010-2810: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-2810
               http://bugs.debian.org/594300

openjdk-6 6b18-1.8.1-1:
CVE-2010-2783: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-2783
<no CVE yet> : flaw that allows unsigned code to access any file on the 
machine (accessible to the user) and write to it.
<no CVE yet> : flaw in NetX that allows arbitrary unsigned apps to set any 
java property

Removed from testing:
=====================
The following issues have been "fixed" by removing the (source) packages from 
testing. This probably means that you have to manually uninstall the 
corresponding binary packages to fix the issues.
It can also mean that the packages have been replaced, or that they have been 
temporarily removed by the release team to make transitions from unstable 
easier.

babiloo:
<no CVE yet> : babiloo insecure downloading and unpacking of dictionary files
               http://bugs.debian.org/591995



How to update:
--------------
Make sure the line

        deb http://security.debian.org squeeze/updates main contrib non-free

is present in your /etc/apt/sources.list. Of course, you also need the line
pointing to your normal squeeze mirror. You can use

        aptitude update && aptitude dist-upgrade

to install the updates.
