Title:	RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2003:081
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2003:081. Zlib is a general-purpose, patent-free, lossless data compression library that is used by many different programs. The function gzprintf within zlib, when called with a string longer than Z_PRINTF_BUFZISE (= 4096 bytes), can overflow without giving a warning. zlib-1.1.4 and earlier exhibit this behavior. There are no known exploits of the gzprintf overrun, and only a few programs, including rpm2html and gimp-print, are known to use the gzprintf function. The problem has been fixed by checking the length of the output string within gzprintf. Solution: Please note that this update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2003-081.html Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 7.5
