Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.59119
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu USN-434-1 (gnomemeeting)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to gnomemeeting
announced via advisory USN-434-1.

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 5.10
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Ubuntu 6.10

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

Details follow:

It was discovered that Ekiga had format string vulnerabilities beyond
those fixed in USN-426-1. If a user was running Ekiga and listening for
incoming calls, a remote attacker could send a crafted call request, and
execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges.

Solution:
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 5.10:
gnomemeeting 1.2.2-1ubuntu1.2

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
ekiga 2.0.1-0ubuntu6.2

After a standard system upgrade you need to restart Ekiga or reboot your
computer to effect the necessary changes.
