Source: ledgersmb Version: 1.6.33+ds-2.1 Severity: important Tags: security upstream X-Debbugs-Cc: carnil(a)debian.org, Debian Security Team <team(a)security.debian.org> Control: found -1 1.6.9+ds-2+deb11u3 Hi, The following vulnerability was published for ledgersmb. CVE-2024-23831[0]: | LedgerSMB is a free web-based double-entry accounting system. When a | LedgerSMB database administrator has an active session in /setup.pl, | an attacker can trick the admin into clicking on a link which | automatically submits a request to setup.pl without the admin's | consent. This request can be used to create a new user account with | full application (/login.pl) privileges, leading to privilege | escalation. The vulnerability is patched in versions 1.10.30 and | 1.11.9. If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry. For further information see: [0] https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2024-23831 https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2024-23831 [1] https://github.com/ledgersmb/LedgerSMB/security/advisories/GHSA-98ff-f638-q… [2] https://github.com/ledgersmb/LedgerSMB/commit/8c2ae5be68a782d62cb9c0e17c012… Regards, Salvatore

Bug#1028924: ledgersmb: Init script calls start-stop-daemon incorrectly, fails to start
by JB 18 Jan '26

Package: ledgersmb Version: 1.6.9+ds-2+deb11u3 Severity: important X-Debbugs-Cc: j-dbug.666.114.1101(a)x.firehead.org Dear Maintainer, I installed LedgerSMB with defaults on Debian-11 with sysvinit (instead of systemd). When I try to start the daemon, it produces the following output: # /etc/init.d/ledgersmb start $Starting ledgersmb: start-stop-daemon: unrecognized option '--interval=5' Try 'start-stop-daemon --help' for more information. # I am not an expert on start-stop-daemon, but looking at the init script, it seems start-stop-daemon is invoked with /usr/bin/start_server as the intended program to run, which then has further arguments for that to start /usr/bin/starman. However the start-stop-daemon invocation lacks a "--start" argument prior to the /usr/bin/start_server, and the "--start" seems to be the norm among other uses of start-stop-daemon in the system's /etc/init.d/* files. So maybe the init script is for some completely different version of start-stop-daemon, or the arguments are really for a different program, or something. I'm not quite sure. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.6 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'oldstable-updates'), (500, 'stable'), (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-20-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages ledgersmb depends on: ii adduser 3.118 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.77 ii dpkg 1.20.12 ii libcarp-always-perl 0.16-1 ii libcgi-emulate-psgi-perl 0.23-1 ii libcgi-simple-perl 1.115-2 ii libclass-c3-xs-perl 0.15-1+b1 ii libconfig-inifiles-perl 3.000003-1 ii libdata-uuid-perl 1.226-1+b1 ii libdatetime-format-strptime-perl 1.7800-1 ii libdatetime-perl 2:1.54-1 ii libdbd-pg-perl 3.14.2-1+b1 ii libdbi-perl 1.643-3+b1 ii libhtml-escape-perl 1.10-1+b3 ii libhttp-exception-perl 0.04007-1 ii libio-stringy-perl 2.111-3 ii libjs-dojo-dijit 1.15.4+dfsg1-1+deb11u1 ii libjson-perl 4.03000-1 ii liblocale-codes-perl 3.66-1 ii liblocale-maketext-lexicon-perl 1.00-1.1 ii liblog-log4perl-perl 1.54-1 ii libmime-lite-perl 3.031-1 ii libmime-types-perl 2.18-1 ii libmoose-perl 2.2014-2 ii libmoosex-nonmoose-perl 0.26-1.1 ii libnamespace-autoclean-perl 0.29-1 ii libnumber-format-perl 1.75-1.1 ii libpgobject-perl 2.2.0-1 ii libpgobject-simple-perl 3.000002-1.1 ii libpgobject-simple-role-perl 2.000002-1.1 ii libpgobject-type-bigfloat-perl 2.001-1 ii libpgobject-type-bytestring-perl 1.2.3-1 ii libpgobject-type-datetime-perl 2.000002-1 ii libpgobject-util-dbadmin-perl 1.4.0-1 ii libpgobject-util-dbmethod-perl 1.00.003-1 ii libplack-builder-conditionals-perl 0.05-1.1 ii libplack-middleware-reverseproxy-perl 0.16-1 ii libplack-perl 1.0048-1 ii libplack-request-withencoding-perl 0.14-1 ii libtemplate-perl 2.27-1+b3 ii libtext-markdown-perl 1.000031-3 ii libtry-tiny-perl 0.30-1 ii libversion-compare-perl 0.14-1.1 ii libxml-simple-perl 2.25-1 ii perl 5.32.1-4+deb11u2 ii postgresql-client-13 [postgresql-client] 13.9-0+deb11u1 ii postgresql-contrib 13+225 ii starman 0.4015-1 ii ucf 3.0043 Versions of packages ledgersmb recommends: ii apache2 2.4.54-1~deb11u1 pn libjson-xs-perl <none> pn liblatex-driver-perl <none> pn libmath-bigint-gmp-perl <none> pn libtemplate-plugin-latex-perl <none> pn libtex-encode-perl <none> pn texlive-latex-recommended <none> Versions of packages ledgersmb suggests: ii exim4-daemon-light [mail-transport-agent] 4.94.2-7 pn latex-cjk-all <none> pn libimage-size-perl <none> pn libopenoffice-oodoc-perl <none> pn libx12-parser-perl <none> pn lpr <none> ii postgresql 13+225 pn texlive-xetex <none> -- debconf information: * ledgersmb/lsmb_proxy: None * ledgersmb/admin_login: lsmb_dbadmin
