Hi:

There is a stack smashing/corruption bug in libfcgi/2.4.0-8. The bug was fixed in: 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=681591, however this package is currently
in unstable as other changes were added as well. This bug is a security issue as you can DoS
a server process quite easily.

A CVE has been assigned (CVE-2012-6687): http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2015/02/07/4.

Ubuntu accepted my patched version of their  package into 12.04 precise-security: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+source/libfcgi/+bug/1418778

Instructions for setting up a PoC: https://gist.github.com/ice799/abc2522397b1605a5d7f.

I sent my changes to the security team who told me this should be fixed with an 's-p-u' so I 
am trying to follow directions found online on how to do this.

I've attached a debdiff I generated against the version in stable.

Let me know how else I can help.

Thanks,
Joe
