Package: typo3-src
Vulnerability  : several
Problem type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
Debian Bug : 514713

Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the TYPO3 web
content management framework.

Marcus Krause and Michael Stucki from the TYPO3 security team
discovered that the jumpUrl mechanism discloses secret hashes enabling
a remote attacker to bypass access control by submitting the correct
value as a URL parameter and thus being able to read the content of
arbitrary files.

Jelmer de Hen and Dmitry Dulepov discovered multiple cross-site
scripting vulnerabilities in the backend user interface allowing
remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML.

As it is very likely that your encryption key has been exposed we
strongly recommend to change your encyption key via the install tool
after installing the update.

For the stable distribution (etch) these problems have been fixed in
version 4.0.2+debian-8.

For the testing distribution (lenny) these problems have been fixed in
version 4.2.5-1+lenny1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in
version 4.2.6-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your typo3 package.


Upgrade Instructions
- 

wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given at the end of this advisory:

apt-get update
will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.

One problem with tunnels is that you can accidently not use the tunnel.

E.g. I have eth0 which is connected to the insecure network, and 
my encrypted tunnel to a secure network.

Although the tunnel is available, the unsecure eth0 is still also
available.  I need to correctly set up the SOCKS proxy or set up the
routing tables, or do something to be sure that all my network traffic
is going through the tunnel and not just directly to the unsecure eth0.
There's no easy way to tell if you're doing it right, either, since the
web looks basically the same from the unsecure network as from the secure
one.

The Cisco VPN I use on my employer's Windows machine has an interesting
feature: it completely hides the unencrypted network.  Once I create the
VPN tunnel, my machine releases it's local IP address and there is no
way for any network connections (other than the tunnel, of course) to go
over the unencrypted device.  It is as if that device is disabled.

This makes it idiotproof, which is an important but often overlooked
aspect of security.

So, is is possible to do that sort of thing with a Linux laptop?

You could use the -w option in newer ssh server versions to tunnel
through virtual tun devices =)

ssh -w 0:1 b...@example.com

0 is tun0 @ localhost
1 is tun1 @ example.com


and enable ip forwarding on th remote host

-- snip from ssh manpage --

 -w local_tun[:remote_tun]
 Requests tunnel device forwarding with the specified tun(4) devices
 between the client (local_tun) and the server (remote_tun).

 The devices may be specified by numerical ID or the keyword “any”,
 which uses the next available tunnel device.  If remote_tun is not
 specified, it defaults to “any”.  See also the Tunnel and 
TunnelDevice
 directives in ssh_config(5).  If the Tunnel directive is unset, it 
is
 set to the default tunnel mode, which is “point-to-point”.
