Title:	RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2007:0765
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2007:0765. The libgtop2 package contains a library for obtaining information about a running system, such as cpu, memory and disk usage active processes and PIDs. A flaw was found in the way libgtop2 handled long filenames mapped into the address space of a process. An attacker could execute arbitrary code on behalf of the user running gnome-system-monitor by executing a process and mapping a file with a specially crafted name into the processes' address space. (CVE-2007-0235) This update also fixes the following bug: * when a version of libgtop2 compiled to run on a 32-bit architecture was used to inspect a process running in 64-bit mode, it failed to report certain information regarding address space mapping correctly. All users of gnome-system-monitor are advised to upgrade to this updated libgtop2 package, which contains backported patches that resolve these issues. Solution: Please note that this update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2007-0765.html http://www.redhat.com/security/updates/classification/#moderate Risk factor : Medium CVSS Score: 3.7
