Title:	Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2002:551
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory CLA-2002:551. Pine is a mail and news text based client developed by the Washington University[1]. Linus Sjöberg (lsjoberg@aland.net) discovered[2] a vulnerability that allows an attacker to send a fully legal e-mail message with the From: header crafted in such a way that will crash pine on startup. By exploiting this, an attacker can prevent the pine user of starting the program to manage his/her mailbox. It was not confirmed if it is possible to execute arbitrary code by exploiting this vulnerability, but such a possibility exists. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned[3] the name CVE-2002-1320 to this issue. Please notice that this new version of pine (4.50) includes several new features and other bugfixes, as documented in the official changelog[4]. Solution: The apt tool can be used to perform RPM package upgrades by running 'apt-get update' followed by 'apt-get upgrade' http://www.washington.edu/pine/ http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bugtraq&m=103668430620531&w=2 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2002-1320 http://www.washington.edu/pine/changes/4.44-to-4.50.html http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=CLA-2002:551 http://distro.conectiva.com.br/atualizacoes/index.php?id=a&anuncio=002002 Risk factor : Medium CVSS Score: 5.0
