Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2014-0174)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'jbigkit' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2014-0174 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'jbigkit' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2014-0174 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Updated jbigkit packages fix security vulnerability:

Florian Weimer found a stack-based buffer overflow flaw in the libjbig library
(part of jbigkit). A specially-crafted image file read by libjbig could be
used to cause a program linked to libjbig to crash or, potentially, to execute
arbitrary code (CVE-2013-6369).

The jbigkit package has been updated to version 2.1, which fixes this issue,
as well as a few other bugs, including the ability of corrupted input data to
force the jbig85 decoder into an end-less loop.

Affected Software/OS:
'jbigkit' package(s) on Mageia 3, Mageia 4.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
6.8
