Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.57024 |
Category: | Mandrake Local Security Checks |
Title: | Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2006:113 (tetex) |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing an update to tetex announced via advisory MDKSA-2006:113. Integer overflows were reported in the GD Graphics Library (libgd) 2.0.28, and possibly other versions. These overflows allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via PNG image files with large image rows values that lead to a heap-based buffer overflow in the gdImageCreateFromPngCtx() function. Tetex contains an embedded copy of the GD library code. (CAN-2004-0941) The LZW decoding in the gdImageCreateFromGifPtr function in the Thomas Boutell graphics draw (GD) library (aka libgd) 2.0.33 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via malformed GIF data that causes an infinite loop. Tetex contains an embedded copy of the GD library code. (CVE-2006-2906) Updated packages have been patched to address both issues. Affected: 10.2, 2006.0 Solution: To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=MDKSA-2006:113 Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 5.4 |
