This marks the end of life of the libqb package in jessie. A recently reported vulnerability against libqb which allows users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack cannot be adequately addressed in libqb in jessie. Upstream no longer supports this version and no packages in jessie depend upon libqb. We recommend that if your systems or applications depend upon the libqb package provided from the Debian archive that you upgrade your systems to a more recent Debian release or find an alternate and up to date source of libqb packages. Additionally, MySQL 5.5 is no longer supported. Upstream has ended its support and we are unable to backport fixes from newer versions due to the lack of patch details. Options are to switch to MariaDB 10.0 in jessie or to a newer version of MySQL in more recent Debian releases. Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found at: https://wiki.debian.org/LTS - -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEuL9UE3sJ01zwJv6dCRq4VgaaqhwFAl5FylUACgkQCRq4Vgaa qhyn3w//ca4LkUz8UMe9w4wUGjjxfIErJ36s1OHxFJumNlAoqBETbtb1Rz/knRsg qv+T5trMbQLCLOEUZ4R+KQ31nXJZH8eUoURiqUbtrg/gHNS00kBHJwyhsfTrDw++ 6gkt3GiaL0XpSk64EIh2iJ1voMAIUC2orvTz9PhiADJgOHEdUG/Kklm5wTWLNfrz NwLhNWUu/i/Kw5PaHjmR0g0lqo6+qNSUDcx7htX0MKgBweUuviV+IBc1iLBqSezm SohIJlc7+FURxgLAb+IlOhGP5CTMuvmlGARzTQduO6ByFCMduDwCypIBnhYrZD+F hfypiQqWiST4FjX8ZkdDjWxoPQzGeXGKVSK+nzG/Uunu/BRPM4W6/cWqORNTk9RV 334CykobJUjLoeG8zhuDZc06CGKg5Cvj1jeeD7coTxzDIiaZ8soyZ7BNz4nkJQA4 p5ZlIjLyHB4e5ttsc+Rg13YWrVd4oF/u1Kmby++w9Mxvw2xCka3/Zs6nHEZtKE3M pM14YIuVcmV0Lp+o1jw62E/QbBctgZxriGDko4u/Vg/QRvfzYLoti/OXCgQZkxOA casLYHS1BqNZjgdHrEO1ic/21zF1tcT2bd1dm57zpZo8De5YyZ459JsW2bY8LlWV CIdxBhRqBTEV9/HUINYtIaUx7XMGQBnwPAMtOHj3eGVII3+Gjz8= =fPDG - -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- - --HlL+5n6rz5pIUxbD-- - --------------------------END INCLUDED TEXT-------------------- You have received this e-mail bulletin as a result of your organisation's registration with AusCERT.
