Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.68206
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu USN-993-1 (libgdiplus)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:
The remote host is missing an update to libgdiplus
announced via advisory USN-993-1.

Details follow:

Stefan Cornelius discovered that libgdiplus incorrectly handled certain
image files. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a
crafted image file, an attacker could cause a denial of service or possibly
execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the
program.

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

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS:
libgdiplus 1.2.6-2ubuntu2.1

Ubuntu 9.04:
libgdiplus 2.0-1ubuntu0.1

Ubuntu 9.10:
libgdiplus 2.4.2-1ubuntu0.9.10.1

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
libgdiplus 2.4.2-1ubuntu0.10.04.1

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
