According to <uri
|
|
link="http://www.webdav.org/cadaver">http://www.webdav.org/cadaver</uri>,
|
|
cadaver is a command-line WebDAV client for Unix. It supports file upload,
|
|
download, on-screen display, namespace operations (move/copy), collection
|
|
creation and deletion, and locking operations.

<p>
|
|
Cadaver code includes the neon library, which in versions 0.24.4 and
|
|
previous is vulnerable to multiple format string attacks. The latest
|
|
version of cadaver uses version 0.24.5 of the neon library, which makes it
|
|
immune to this vulnerability.
|
|

|
|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
When using cadaver to connect to an untrusted WebDAV server, this
|
|
vulnerability can allow a malicious remote server to execute arbitrary code
|
|
on the client with the rights of the user using cadaver.
|
|

|
<workaround>
