II. DESCRIPTION
Vulnerability : denial of service
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2011-1754
Wouter Coekaerts discovered that jabberd14, an instant messaging server
using the Jabber/XMPP protocol, is vulnerable to the so-called
"billion laughs" attack because it does not prevent entity expansion on
received data. This allows an attacker to perform denial of service
attacks against the service by sending specially crafted XML data to it.
Finally, let me explain how I personally use virtual machines to put this
all in context of why I think this is important. I use Windows Vista as my
host machine, logged in as a non-admin user. I am typing this e-mail--also
as a non-admin user--in a Windows XP virtual machine dedicated to instant
messaging and e-mail. On another monitor I have a VM running Windows 2003 as
a domain controller (btw, you need the client utilities on domain
controllers to keep the clock correct) where I am logged in as an
administrator, but the screen saver is password-protected and I lock the
console anyway when I am finished using it. On that machine I have a number
of admin and networking tools installed. Finally, I have yet another Windows
