Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2015-0261)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'libwmf' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2015-0261 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'libwmf' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2015-0261 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
It was discovered that libwmf did not correctly process certain WMF
(Windows Metafiles) containing BMP images. By tricking a victim into
opening a specially crafted WMF file in an application using libwmf, a
remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to execute arbitrary code
with the privileges of the user running the application (CVE-2015-0848,
CVE-2015-4588).

Two out of bounds reads in libwmf were also discovered, one in the
meta_pen_create() function in player/meta.h (CVE-2015-4695) and one in
wmf2gd.c and wmf2eps.c (CVE-2015-4696)

Affected Software/OS:
'libwmf' package(s) on Mageia 4, Mageia 5.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
