Category: | Mandrake Local Security Checks |
Title: | Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2001:073-1 (xli/xloadimage) |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing an update to xli/xloadimage announced via advisory MDKSA-2001:073-1. A buffer overflow exists in xli due to missing boundary checks. This could be triggered by an external attacker to execute commands on the victim's machine. An exploit is publically available. xli is an image viewer that is used by Netscape's plugger to display TIFF, PNG, and Sun-Raster images. Update: The xloadimage package uses the same code as xli and is likewise vulnerable. An update is provided for xloadimage which was only provided with Linux-Mandrake 7.2. Affected versions: 7.1, 7.2, 8.0, Corporate Server 1.0.1 Solution: To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=MDKSA-2001:073-1 http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/security/RPM-GPG-KEYS Risk factor : High |
