Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.58459
Category:Gentoo Local Security Checks
Title:Gentoo Security Advisory GLSA 200707-06 (xnview)
Summary:The remote host is missing updates announced in;advisory GLSA 200707-06.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory GLSA 200707-06.

Vulnerability Insight:
XnView is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow and possible remote
code execution when handling XPM image files.

Solution:
No update appears to be forthcoming from the XnView developer and XnView is
proprietary, so the XnView package has been masked in Portage. We recommend
that users select an alternate graphics viewer and conversion utility, and
unmerge XnView:

# emerge --unmerge xnview

CVSS Score:
10.0

CVSS Vector:
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
