Keywords:  
Status Whiteboard: B4 [glsa]
Opened: 2007-09-07 12:44 0000
Description:   Opened: 2007-09-07 12:44 0000
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Gallery, which can be exploited by
malicious users to manipulate data.

The vulnerabilities are caused due to unspecified errors within the WebDAV and
Reupload modules, which can be exploited to e.g. rename items, change item
properties, replace items, or edit item data via WebDAV.

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 2.2.3.

Gallery-2.2.3 is in the tree.

Since 2.1.2 is apparently vulnerable these are the target archs for
stabilization:

alpha amd64 hppa ppc ppc64 sparc x86

Removed the insecure versions from the tree. web-apps is done here.

glsa request filed.

GLSA 200711-03

None of the security announcements implicitly mentions gallery-1.x as affected
or not. From the announcement we could assume that gallery 1.x is affected as
all versions before gallery-2.2.3 are affected, but:
- According to page http://codex.gallery2.org/G1-G2_Comparison gallery-1.x does
not support WebDAV and does not support module system (patch required)
- Secunia website (URL provided in this bug) mentions only 'Gallery 2.x' as
affected software
This would indicate that gallery-1.x is not affected by this problem, however:

mac ~ # glsa-check -lnc affected
[A] means this GLSA was already applied,
[U] means the system is not affected and
[N] indicates that the system might be affected.

CVE-2007-4650

I do have gallery-1.5.7 installed on the system (some people still prefer
gallery-1.x as it doesn't require DB backend)

glsa-200711-03.xml finally fixed, thanks for the info.
