Título:	Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2002:512
Resumen:	NOSUMMARY
Descripción:	Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory CLA-2002:512. libpng is a library used to create and manipulate PNG (Portable Network Graphics) image files. The 1.2.4* and 1.0.14 releases of libpng solve a potential buffer overflow vulnerability[1] in some functions related to progressive image loading. Programs such as mozilla and various others use these functions. An attacker could exploit this to remotely run arbitrary code or crash an application by using a specially crafted png image. These new releases also solve other minor bugs such as some memory leaks in reading image functions. * libpng 1.2.4 is available only in Conectiva Linux 8, where its package is called libpng3. Solution: The apt tool can be used to perform RPM package upgrades by running 'apt-get update' followed by 'apt-get upgrade' http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=CLA-2002:512 http://distro.conectiva.com.br/atualizacoes/index.php?id=a&anuncio=002002 Risk factor : High
