Title:	Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2005:924
Summary:	Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2005:924
Description:	The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory CLA-2005:924. XFree86[1] is a freely redistributable open-source implementation of the X Window System, which is a client/server interface between display hardware and the desktop environment. Chris Evans has discovered multiple integer[2] and stack[3] overflow vulnerabilities in the X Pixmap library, libXpm, which is a part of the X Window System. These overflows can be exploited by openning a malicious XPM file, which can crash applications that are dependent on libXpm. Solution: The apt tool can be used to perform RPM package upgrades by running 'apt-get update' followed by 'apt-get upgrade' http://www.xfree86.org/ http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=CLA-2005:924 http://distro.conectiva.com.br/atualizacoes/index.php?id=a&anuncio=000924 Risk factor : High
