Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

The Horde Application Framework contained a remote code execution vulnerability. A remote attacker could use this flaw to use image uploads in forms to install and execute a file in an arbitrary writable location on the server.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', this problem has been fixed in version 2.0.8-2+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your php-horde-form packages.
