Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.57636
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2006:202 (wv)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to wv
announced via advisory MDKSA-2006:202.

Multiple integer overflows in the WV library in wvWare (formerly
mswordview) before 1.2.3, as used by AbiWord?, KWord, and possibly
other products, allow user-assisted remote attackers to execute
arbitrary code via a crafted Microsoft Word (DOC) file that produces
(1) large LFO clfolvl values in the wvGetLFO_records function or (2) a
large LFO nolfo value in the wvGetFLO_PLF function.

Updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.

Affected: 2006.0, 2007.0, Corporate 3.0

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