Title:	Ubuntu USN-936-1 (dvipng)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to dvipng announced via advisory USN-936-1. Details follow: Dan Rosenberg discovered that dvipng incorrectly handled certain malformed dvi files. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted dvi 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. Solution: The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 9.04: dvipng 1.11-1ubuntu0.9.04.1 Ubuntu 9.10: dvipng 1.11-1ubuntu0.9.10.1 Ubuntu 10.04 LTS: dvipng 1.12-3ubuntu0.1 In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=USN-936-1 Risk factor : Medium CVSS Score: 4.3
