Package: freevo Severity: important Tags: security I have been working on a tool called Clonewise to automatically identify embedded code copies in Debian packages and determine if they are out of date and vulnerable. Ideally, embedding code and libraries should be avoided and a system wide library should be used instead.
I recently ran the tool on Debian 6 stable. The results are here at http://www.foocodechu.com/downloads/Clonewise-report.txt* *The freevo package reported potential issues appended to this message. Apologies if these are false positives. Your help in advising me on whether these issues are real will help me improve the analysis for the future. -- Silvio Cesare Deakin University ### Summary: ### feedparser CLONED_IN_SOURCE freevo <unfixed> CVE-2011-1156 feedparser CLONED_IN_SOURCE freevo <unfixed> CVE-2011-1157 feedparser CLONED_IN_SOURCE freevo <unfixed> CVE-2011-1158 ### Reports by package: ### # Package freevo may be vulnerable to the following issues: # CVE-2011-1156 CVE-2011-1157 CVE-2011-1158 # SUMMARY: feedparser.py in Universal Feed Parser (aka feedparser or python-feedparser) before 5.0.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed DOCTYPE declaration. # # CVE-2011-1156 relates to a vulnerability in package feedparser. # The following source filenames are likely responsible: # feedparser.py # # The following package clones are tracked in the embedded-code-copies # database.
