Message-ID: <200403101444.i2AEiLY00526@lacrosse.corp.redhat.com> From: bugzilla at redhat.com (bugzilla@...hat.com) Subject: [RHSA-2004:102-01] Updated gdk-pixbuf packages fix denial of service vulnerability -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Updated gdk-pixbuf packages fix denial of service vulnerability Advisory ID: RHSA-2004:102-01 Issue date: 2004-03-10 Updated on: 2004-03-10 Product: Red Hat Linux Keywords: DoS Cross references: Obsoletes: CVE Names: CAN-2004-0111 - --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: Updated gdk-pixbuf packages that fix a denial of service vulnerability that could affect applications such as Evolution are now available. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Linux 9 - i386 3. Problem description: The gdk-pixbuf package contains an image loading library used with the GNOME GUI desktop environment. In Red Hat Linux 9 this library is used by applications, such as Evolution, to load images. Thomas Kristensen discovered a bitmap file that would cause the Evolution mail reader to crash. This issue was caused by a flaw that affects versions of the gdk-pixbuf package prior to 0.20. To exploit this flaw, a remote attacker could send (via email) a carefully-crafted BMP file, which would cause Evolution to crash. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0111 to this issue. Users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages containing gdk-pixbuf version 0.22, which is not vulnerable to this issue. 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. If up2date fails to connect to Red Hat Network due to SSL Certificate Errors, you need to install a version of the up2date client with an updated certificate. The latest version of up2date is available from the Red Hat FTP site and may also be downloaded directly from the RHN website: https://rhn.redhat.com/help/latest-up2date.pxt 5. RPMs required: Red Hat Linux 9: SRPMS: ftp://updates.redhat.com/9/en/os/SRPMS/gdk-pixbuf-0.22.0-6.1.0.src.rpm i386: ftp://updates.redhat.com/9/en/os/i386/gdk-pixbuf-0.22.0-6.1.0.i386.rpm ftp://updates.redhat.com/9/en/os/i386/gdk-pixbuf-devel-0.22.0-6.1.0.i386.rpm ftp://updates.redhat.com/9/en/os/i386/gdk-pixbuf-gnome-0.22.0-6.1.0.i386.rpm 6.
