Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.50545 |
Category: | Mandrake Local Security Checks |
Title: | Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2004:063 (libpng) |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing an update to libpng announced via advisory MDKSA-2004:063. A buffer overflow vulnerability was discovered in libpng due to a wrong calculation of some loop offset values. This buffer overflow can lead to Denial of Service or even remote compromise. This vulnerability was initially patched in January of 2003, but it has since been noted that fixes were required in two additional places that had not been corrected with the earlier patch. This update uses an updated patch to fix all known issues. After the upgrade, all applications that use libpng should be restarted. Many applications are linked to libpng, so if you are unsure of what applications to restart, you may wish to reboot the system. Mandrakesoft encourages all users to upgrade immediately. Affected versions: 10.0, 9.1, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1, Multi Network Firewall 8.2 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-2004:063 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2002-1363 http://www.mandrakesoft.com/security/advisories?name=MDKSA-2003:008 Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 7.5 |
