Debian ended support for the Debian 3.1 (Sarge) on Mar 31, 2008 — no more patches or fixes from the vendor. Third-party support keeps it covered: our engineers manage issues, remediate vulnerabilities, and help you maintain compliance for as long as you run it.

When is the Debian 3.1 (Sarge) end of service life (EOSL) date?

Debian lists the end of service life for the Debian 3.1 (Sarge) as Mar 31, 2008.

Can I keep using the Debian 3.1 (Sarge) after its EOSL date?

Yes. EOSL means Debian stops issuing patches and support — the software itself keeps running. Third-party support covers it from there: issue management, security vulnerability remediation, and the compliance documentation auditors ask for, for as long as you choose to run it.

How much does third-party support for the Debian 3.1 (Sarge) cost?

Typically 40-70% below the OEM maintenance renewal price. Exact pricing depends on quantity, service level and location — request a quote and we respond within 24 hours.

CVESeverityCVSSPublishedSummary
CVE-2008-0062CRITICAL9.8Mar 19, 2008KDC in MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5kdc) does not set a global variable for some krb4 message types, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted messages that trigger a NULL pointer dereference or double-free.
CVE-2007-3798CRITICAL9.8Jul 16, 2007Integer overflow in print-bgp.c in the BGP dissector in tcpdump 3.9.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted TLVs in a BGP packet, related to an unchecked return value.
CVE-2005-3120CRITICAL9.8Oct 17, 2005Stack-based buffer overflow in the HTrjis function in Lynx 2.8.6 and earlier allows remote NNTP servers to execute arbitrary code via certain article headers containing Asian characters that cause Lynx to add extra escape (ESC) characters.
CVE-2005-1689CRITICAL9.8Jul 18, 2005Double free vulnerability in the krb5_recvauth function in MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5) 1.4.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain error conditions.
CVE-2007-2442HIGH10.0Jun 26, 2007The gssrpc__svcauth_gssapi function in the RPC library in MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5) 1.6.1 and earlier might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a zero-length RPC credential, which causes kadmind to free an uninitialized pointer during cleanup.
CVE-2007-0956HIGH10.0Apr 6, 2007The telnet daemon (telnetd) in MIT krb5 before 1.6.1 allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain system access via a username beginning with a '-' character, a similar issue to CVE-2007-0882.
CVE-2005-3625HIGH10.0Dec 31, 2005Xpdf, as used in products such as gpdf, kpdf, pdftohtml, poppler, teTeX, CUPS, libextractor, and others, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via streams that end prematurely, as demonstrated using the (1) CCITTFaxDecode and (2) DCTDecode streams, aka "Infinite CPU spins."
CVE-2005-2700HIGH10.0Sep 6, 2005ssl_engine_kernel.c in mod_ssl before 2.8.24, when using "SSLVerifyClient optional" in the global virtual host configuration, does not properly enforce "SSLVerifyClient require" in a per-location context, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions.
CVE-2007-6427HIGH9.3Jan 18, 2008The XInput extension in X.Org Xserver before 1.4.1 allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via requests related to byte swapping and heap corruption within multiple functions, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-4990.
CVE-2007-2834HIGH9.3Sep 18, 2007Integer overflow in the TIFF parser in OpenOffice.org (OOo) before 2.3; and Sun StarOffice 6, 7, and 8 Office Suite (StarSuite); allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a TIFF file with crafted values of unspecified length fields, which triggers allocation of an incorrect amount of memory, resulting in a heap-based buffer overflow.
CVE-2007-1667HIGH9.3Mar 24, 2007Multiple integer overflows in (1) the XGetPixel function in ImUtil.c in X.Org libx11 before 1.0.3, and (2) XInitImage function in xwd.c for ImageMagick, allow user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or obtain sensitive information via crafted images with large or negative values that trigger a buffer overflow.
CVE-2006-5868HIGH9.3Nov 22, 2006Multiple buffer overflows in Imagemagick 6.0 before 6.0.6.2, and 6.2 before 6.2.4.5, has unknown impact and user-assisted attack vectors via a crafted SGI image.
CVE-2006-4482HIGH9.3Aug 31, 2006Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in the (1) str_repeat and (2) wordwrap functions in ext/standard/string.c in PHP before 5.1.5, when used on a 64-bit system, have unspecified impact and attack vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-1990.
CVE-2007-2798HIGH9.0Jun 26, 2007Stack-based buffer overflow in the rename_principal_2_svc function in kadmind for MIT Kerberos 1.5.3, 1.6.1, and other versions allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via a crafted request to rename a principal.
CVE-2007-1216HIGH9.0Apr 6, 2007Double free vulnerability in the GSS-API library (lib/gssapi/krb5/k5unseal.c), as used by the Kerberos administration daemon (kadmind) in MIT krb5 before 1.6.1, when used with the authentication method provided by the RPCSEC_GSS RPC library, allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code and modify the Kerberos key database via a message with an "an invalid direction encoding".
CVE-2007-0957HIGH9.0Apr 6, 2007Stack-based buffer overflow in the krb5_klog_syslog function in the kadm5 library, as used by the Kerberos administration daemon (kadmind) and Key Distribution Center (KDC), in MIT krb5 before 1.6.1 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code and modify the Kerberos key database via crafted arguments, possibly involving certain format string specifiers.
CVE-2019-9972HIGH8.8Jun 7, 2022PhoneSystem Terminal in 3CX Phone System (Debian based installation) 16.0.0.1570 allows an authenticated attacker to run arbitrary commands with the phonesystem user privileges because of "<space><space> followed by <shift><enter>" mishandling.
CVE-2019-9971HIGH8.8Jun 7, 2022PhoneSystem Terminal in 3CX Phone System (Debian based installation) 16.0.0.1570 allows an attacker to gain root privileges by using sudo with the tcpdump command, without a password. This occurs because the -z (aka postrotate-command) option to tcpdump can be unsafe when used in conjunction with sudo.
CVE-2016-3062HIGH8.8Jun 16, 2016The mov_read_dref function in libavformat/mov.c in Libav before 11.7 and FFmpeg before 0.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or execute arbitrary code via the entries value in a dref box in an MP4 file.
CVE-2007-6415HIGH8.5Jan 25, 2008scponly 4.6 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended restrictions and execute arbitrary code by invoking scp, as implemented by OpenSSH, with the -F and -o options.
