Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.70313
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandriva Security Advisory MDVSA-2011:143 (rpm)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:
The remote host is missing an update to rpm
announced via advisory MDVSA-2011:143.

Multiple flaws were found in the way the RPM library parsed package
headers. An attacker could create a specially-crafted RPM package that,
when queried or installed, would cause rpm to crash or, potentially,
execute arbitrary code (CVE-2011-3378).

Additionally for Mandriva Linux 2009.0 and Mandriva Linux Enterprise
Server 5 updated perl-URPM and lzma (xz v5) packages are being provided
to support upgrading to Mandriva Linux 2011.

The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.

Affected: 2009.0, 2010.1, Enterprise Server 5.0

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
