===========================================================
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-762-1             April 20, 2009
apt vulnerabilities
CVE-2009-1300, https://launchpad.net/bugs/356012
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Ubuntu 8.04 LTS
Ubuntu 8.10

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
  apt                             0.6.43.3ubuntu3.1

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS:
  apt                             0.7.9ubuntu17.2

Ubuntu 8.10:
  apt                             0.7.14ubuntu6.1

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.

Details follow:

Alexandre Martani discovered that the APT daily cron script did not check
the return code of the date command. If a machine is configured for
automatic updates and is in a time zone where DST occurs at midnight, under
certain circumstances automatic updates might not be applied and could
become permanently disabled. (CVE-2009-1300)

Michael Casadevall discovered that APT did not properly verify repositories
signed with a revoked or expired key. If a repository were signed with only
an expired or revoked key and the signature was otherwise valid, APT would
consider the repository valid. (https://launchpad.net/bugs/356012)
