-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- =========================================================================== AUSCERT External Security Bulletin Redistribution ESB-2002.236 -- RHSA-2002:048-14 New imlib packages available 21 May 2002 =========================================================================== AusCERT Security Bulletin Summary --------------------------------- Product: imlib Vendor: Red Hat Operating System: Red Hat Linux 6.2 Red Hat Linux 7.0 Red Hat Linux 7.1 Red Hat Linux 7.2 Platform: Alpha i386 IA-64 SPARC Impact: Denial of Service Execute Arbitrary Code/Commands - --------------------------BEGIN INCLUDED TEXT-------------------- - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Hat, Inc. Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: New imlib packages available Advisory ID: RHSA-2002:048-14 Issue date: 2002-03-15 Updated on: 2002-05-16 Product: Red Hat Linux Keywords: imlib netpbm untrusted image Cross references: Obsoletes: - --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: Updated imlib packages are now available for Red Hat Linux 6.2, 7, 7.1 and 7.2 which fix potential problems loading untrusted images. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Linux 6.2 - alpha, i386, sparc Red Hat Linux 7.0 - alpha, i386 Red Hat Linux 7.1 - alpha, i386, ia64 Red Hat Linux 7.2 - i386, ia64 3. Problem description: Imlib versions prior to 1.9.13 would fall back to loading images via the NetPBM package, which has various problems making it unsuitable for loading untrusted images. Imlib 1.9.13 also fixes various problems in arguments passed to malloc(). These problems may allow attackers to construct images that, when loaded by a viewer using Imlib, could cause crashes or potentially the execution of arbitrary code. Users are advised to upgrade to these errata packages, which contain Imlib 1.9.13. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the names CAN-2002-0167, CAN-2002-0168 to these issues. [update May 16 2002] The previous release of this errata fixed the aforementioned security problems but had a file descriptor leak and a bug which would cause some applications (such as the Enlightenment window manager) to hang. These updated packages fix these issues. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run: rpm -Fvh [filenames] where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the desired RPMs. Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. 5.
