Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.51458 |
Category: | Conectiva Local Security Checks |
Title: | Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2003:737 |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory CLA-2003:737. The gtkhtml library is used by Evolution and other Gnome programs to render basic HTML. Evolution is a Gnome-based personal information manager (PIM) which includes e-mail, address book, calendar and other integrated features. Alan Cox discovered two vulnerabilities (CVE-2003-0541[1] and CVE-2003-0133[2]) in the gtkhtml library. These vulnerabilities can be exploited to at least crash programs linked to gtkhtml by using malformed HTML. In the case of Evolution, a remote attacker can use an HTML mail as an attack vector. This update includes fixes for both vulnerabilities. Please note that the second one (CVE-2003-0133) affects only the gtkhtml version distributed with Conectiva Linux 9. Solution: The apt tool can be used to perform RPM package upgrades by running 'apt-get update' followed by 'apt-get upgrade' http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2003-0541 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2003-0133 http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=CLA-2003:737 http://distro.conectiva.com.br/atualizacoes/index.php?id=a&anuncio=002003 Risk factor : Medium CVSS Score: 5.0 |
