CVE-2009-4501  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-119  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:9 zabbix to version 1:1.8-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream zabbix package and not the zabbix package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

The zbx_get_next_field function in libs/zbxcommon/str.c in Zabbix Server before 1.6.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a request that lacks expected separators, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference, as demonstrated using the Command keyword.
