Category:	Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:	Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2016-0287)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'fontconfig' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2016-0287 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'fontconfig' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2016-0287 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Tobias Stoeckmann discovered that cache files are insufficiently validated in fontconfig, a generic font configuration library. An attacker can trigger arbitrary free() calls, which in turn allows double free attacks and therefore arbitrary code execution. In combination with setuid binaries using crafted cache files, this could allow privilege escalation (CVE-2016-5384). Affected Software/OS: 'fontconfig' package(s) on Mageia 5. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 4.6 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
