Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.56123
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu USN-238-2 (blender)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to blender
announced via advisory USN-238-2.

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger)

The following packages are affected: blender

Damian Put discovered that Blender did not properly validate a
'length' value in .blend files. Negative values led to an
insufficiently sized memory allocation. By tricking a user into
opening a specially crafted .blend file, this could be exploited to
execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the Blender user.

Solution:
The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 2.37a-1ubuntu1.1. In general, a standard system upgrade is
sufficient to effect the necessary changes.

The original advisory in USN-238-1 accidentially contained a wrong CVE
number and advisory text. We apologize for this error.
