Title:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2005:133 (netpbm)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to netpbm announced via advisory MDKSA-2005:133. Max Vozeler discovered that pstopnm, a part of the netpbm graphics utility suite, would call the GhostScript interpreter on untrusted PostScript files without using the -dSAFER option when converting a PostScript file into a PBM, PGM, or PNM file. This could result in the execution of arbitrary commands with the privileges of the user running pstopnm if they could be convinced to try to convert a malicious PostScript file. The updated packages have been patched to correct this problem. Affected versions: 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, Corporate 3.0, Corporate Server 2.1 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-2005:133 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2005-2471 http://secunia.com/advisories/16184/ Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 7.5
