Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.55928
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2005:217 (netpbm)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to netpbm
announced via advisory MDKSA-2005:217.

Greg Roelofs discovered and fixed several buffer overflows in
pnmtopng which is also included in netpbm, a collection of
graphic conversion utilities, that can lead to the execution of
arbitrary code via a specially crafted PNM file.

Multiple buffer overflows in pnmtopng in netpbm 10.0 and
earlier allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via a
crafted PNM file. (CVE-2005-3632)

An off-by-one buffer overflow in pnmtopng, when using the -alpha
command line option, allows attackers to cause a denial of
service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a
crafted PNM file with exactly 256 colors. (CVE-2005-3662)

The updated packages have been patched to correct this problem.

Affected: 10.1, Corporate 2.1, Corporate 3.0

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
