Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.58107
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2007:058 (ekiga)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to ekiga
announced via advisory MDKSA-2007:058.

A format string flaw was discovered in how ekiga processes certain
messages, which could permit a remote attacker that can connect to
ekiga to potentially execute arbitrary code with the privileges of
the user running ekiga. This is similar to the previous
CVE-2007-1006, but the original evaluation/patches were incomplete.

Updated package have been patched to correct this issue.

Affected: 2007.0

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