Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2016-03-09 15:13:57 UTC
From ${URL} :

An information leak in roundup, allowing authenticated attackers to see sensitive details about 
other users, including their hashed password.

External Reference:

http://www.roundup-tracker.org/docs/upgrading.html#user-data-visibility


@maintainer(s): after the bump, in case we need to stabilize the package, please let us know if it is ready for the stabilization or not.
Comment 1 Aaron Bauman (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2016-11-20 11:55:23 UTC
Per the CVE:

"schema.py in Roundup before 1.5.1 does not properly limit attributes included in default user permissions, which might allow remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive user information by viewing user details."

@maintainer(s), please bump package to >=www-apps/roundup-1.5.1

Additional python notes from upstream:

"**IMPORTANT** The v1.5.x releases of Roundup were the last to support
Python v2.5. Support for Python v2.5 is dropped starting with the v1.6.x
releases of Roundup, at which point either Python v2.6 or v2.7 is
required to run those releases of Roundup."

No rdeps... I figured this would be a popular one, but apparently not.

Treeclean then? If so, I'd rather do it today, and get rid of it along with distutils.eclass 30 days from now.

Yes, please proceed. Maybe someone who cares will respond when the mask appear...

Comment 6 Cédric Krier gentoo-dev 2017-02-17 22:20:32 UTC
Indeed I care about it. I have two installations running it.
I'm going to work on bumping to 1.5.1.
Comment 7 Cédric Krier gentoo-dev 2017-02-17 23:33:00 UTC
Bumped to 1.5.1
Comment 8 Cédric Krier gentoo-dev 2017-03-11 20:38:16 UTC
Stabilization requested at #593182
Comment 9 Cédric Krier gentoo-dev 2017-04-16 08:30:19 UTC
What should I do to remove the mask? There is a stable request at bug #593182 but it seems in conflict with the package mask. Is not the security team allowed to stabilize for such case?
Comment 10 Thomas Deutschmann (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2017-04-16 12:43:06 UTC
To my knowledge, the mask was removed last month via https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/profiles/package.mask?id=f53a7d174f5bd8c52d865678c7348fc8b30a7468:

GLSA Vote: No.

Package has a stable call in another bug and no vulnerable versions remain.
