Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.50505
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu 4.10 USN-69-1 (evolution)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to evolution
announced via advisory USN-69-1.

Max Vozeler discovered an integer overflow in camel-lock-helper. An
user-supplied length value was not validated, so that a value of -1
caused a buffer allocation of 0 bytes
this buffer was then filled by
an arbitrary amount of user-supplied data.

A local attacker or a malicious POP3 server could exploit this to
execute arbitrary code with root privileges (because camel-lock-helper
is installed as setuid root).

The following packages are affected: evolution

Solution:
The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 2.0.2-0ubuntu2.1. In general, a standard system upgrade is
sufficient to effect the necessary changes.
