Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.50595
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2004:114 (gpdf)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to gpdf
announced via advisory MDKSA-2004:114.

Chris Evans discovered numerous vulnerabilities in the xpdf package,
which also effect software using embedded xpdf code, such as gpdf:

Multiple integer overflow issues affecting xpdf-2.0 and xpdf-3.0.
Also programs like gpdf which have embedded versions of xpdf.
These can result in writing an arbitrary byte to an attacker controlled
location which probably could lead to arbitrary code execution.

The updated packages are patched to protect against these
vulnerabilities.

Affected versions: 10.0

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
