Subject: [USN-889-1] gzip vulnerabilities
===========================================================
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-889-1 January 20, 2010
gzip vulnerabilities
CVE-2009-2624, CVE-2010-0001
===========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Ubuntu 8.04 LTS
Ubuntu 8.10
Ubuntu 9.04
Ubuntu 9.10
This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
gzip 1.3.5-12ubuntu0.3
Ubuntu 8.04 LTS:
gzip 1.3.12-3.2ubuntu0.1
Ubuntu 8.10:
gzip 1.3.12-6ubuntu2.8.10.1
Ubuntu 9.04:
gzip 1.3.12-6ubuntu2.9.04.1
Ubuntu 9.10:
gzip 1.3.12-8ubuntu1.1
In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.
Details follow:
It was discovered that gzip incorrectly handled certain malformed
compressed files. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a
specially crafted gzip file, an attacker could cause gzip to crash or
possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking
the program. (CVE-2009-2624)
Aki Helin discovered that gzip incorrectly handled certain malformed
files compressed with the Lempel–Ziv–Welch (LZW) algorithm. If a user or
automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted gzip file,
an attacker could cause gzip to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code
with the privileges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2010-0001)
