Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.67129 |
Category: | Ubuntu Local Security Checks |
Title: | Ubuntu USN-912-1 (audiofile) |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing an update to audiofile announced via advisory USN-912-1. Details follow: It was discovered that Audio File Library contained a heap-based buffer overflow. If a user or automated system processed a crafted WAV file, an attacker could cause a denial of service via application crash, or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. The default compiler options for Ubuntu should reduce this vulnerability to a denial of service. Solution: The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 6.06 LTS: libaudiofile0 0.2.6-6ubuntu1.1 Ubuntu 8.04 LTS: libaudiofile0 0.2.6-7ubuntu1.8.04.1 Ubuntu 8.10: libaudiofile0 0.2.6-7ubuntu1.8.10.1 Ubuntu 9.04: libaudiofile0 0.2.6-7ubuntu1.9.04.1 Ubuntu 9.10: libaudiofile0 0.2.6-7ubuntu2.1 In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=USN-912-1 Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 6.8 |
