Updates available and need to be installed:
Homepage: https://www.icinga.org/
a2) Icinga 1.9.1 [CVE-2013-7108]
b2) Off-by-one memory access
c2) 4.9 AV:N/AC:M/Au:S/C:P/I:N/A:P
d2) The icinga and nagios web gui are susceptible to an "off-by-one read" error, which is resulting from an improper assumption in the handling of user submitted CGI parameters. To prevent buffer overflow attacks against the web gui, icinga/nagios checks for valid string length of user submitted parameters. Any parameter, which is bigger than MAX_INPUT_BUFFER-1 characters long will be discarded. However, by sending a specially crafted cgi parameter, the check routine can be forced to skip the terminating null pointer and read the heap address right after the end of the parameter list. Depending on the memory layout, this may result in a memory corruption condition/crash or reading of sensitive memory locations.
