CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
PACKAGE : evolution
SUMMARY : Several vulnerabilities
DATE : 2003-05-14 16:09:00
ID : CLA-2003:648
RELEVANT
RELEASES : 7.0, 8, 9
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION
Evolution is a Gnome-based personal information manager (PIM). It
includes email, address book, calendar and other integrated
features.
Core Security Technologies found[1] several vulnerabilities in
Evolution <= 1.2.2 and in the gtkhtml library (which is used by
Evolution and other gnome programs to render basic HTML).
These vulnerabilities can be exploited by remote attackers (using
specially crafted e-mails) to crash evolution, cause general system
instability through resource starvation or to bypass some security
restrictions.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project has assigned
the names CAN-2003-0128, CAN-2003-0129 and CAN-2003-0130 to the
issues[2,3,4] discovered.
In Conectiva Linux 7.0 and 8, Evolution is being upgraded to the
1.0.3 version with patches to fix the vulnerabilities. Note that in
order to upgrade Evolution in Conectiva Linux 7.0, several packages
had to be added (Gnome components necessary to run the 1.0.3 version
of Evolution that were not distributed with Conectiva Linux 7.0).
These packages are included in this update.
The Evolution package distributed with Conectiva Linux 9
(evolution-1.2.2-28320cl) already has the fixes for its
vulnerabilities [2,3]. For this version of Conectiva Linux, only the
fix for the gtkhml vulnerability[4] is included.
SOLUTION
All evolution users should upgrade.
IMPORTANT: Conectiva Linux 7.0 users that want to perform this
upgrade using apt must use the "dist-upgrade" command or explicitly
list the packages in the "install" command. This is necessary because
the "upgrade" command will not install the new dependencies.
