Description: | Description:
The remote host is missing an update to libpng announced via advisory MDKSA-2004:079.
Chris Evans discovered numerous vulnerabilities in the libpng graphics library, including a remotely exploitable stack-based buffer overrun in the png_handle_tRNS function, dangerous code in png_handle_sBIT, a possible NULL-pointer crash in png_handle_iCCP (which is also duplicated in multiple other locations), a theoretical integer overflow in png_read_png, and integer overflows during progressive reading.
All users are encouraged 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.
