Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.55820
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu USN-214-1 (libungif4)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to libungif4
announced via advisory USN-214-1.

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog)
Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog)
Ubuntu 4.10 (Breezy Badger)

The following packages are affected: libungif4g

Chris Evans discovered several buffer overflows in the libungif
library. By tricking an user (or automated system) into processing a
specially crafted GIF image, this could be exploited to execute
arbitrary code with the privileges of the application using libungif.

Solution:
The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 4.1.0b1-6ubuntu0.1 (for Ubuntu 4.10), 4.1.3-1ubuntu0.1 (for
Ubuntu 5.04), or 4.1.3-2ubuntu0.1 (for Ubuntu 5.10). In general, a
standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes.
