Subject: [RHSA-2003:060-01] Updated NetPBM packages fix multiple vulnerabilities


---------------------------------------------------------------------
                   Red Hat Security Advisory

Synopsis:          Updated NetPBM packages fix multiple vulnerabilities
Advisory ID:       RHSA-2003:060-01
Issue date:        2003-04-03
Updated on:        2003-04-03
Product:           Red Hat Linux
Keywords:          
Cross references:  RHSA-2002:048
Obsoletes:         
CVE Names:         CAN-2003-0146
---------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Topic:

Updated NetPBM packages are available that fix a number of vulnerabilities
in the netpbm libraries.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 7.0 - i386
Red Hat Linux 7.1 - i386
Red Hat Linux 7.2 - i386, ia64
Red Hat Linux 7.3 - i386
Red Hat Linux 8.0 - i386

3. Problem description:

The netpbm package contains a library of functions that support
programs for handling various graphics file formats, including .pbm
(portable bitmaps), .pgm (portable graymaps), .pnm (portable anymaps),
.ppm (portable pixmaps), and others.

During an audit of the NetPBM library, Al Viro, Alan Cox, and Sebastian
Krahmer found a number of bugs that are potentially exploitable.  These
bugs could be exploited by creating a carefully crafted image in such a way
that it executes arbitrary code when it is processed by either an
application from the netpbm-progs package or an application that uses the
vulnerable netpbm library.

One way that an attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities would be to 
submit a carefully crafted image to be printed, as the LPRng print spooler
used by default in Red Hat Linux releases uses netpbm utilities to parse
various types of image files.

Users are advised to upgrade to the erratum packages, which contain patches
that correct these vulnerabilities.

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.
