Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.71078
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu USN-1347-1 (libevdocument3)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:
The remote host is missing an update to libevdocument3
announced via advisory USN-1347-1.

Details:

It was discovered that Evince did not properly parse AFM font files when
processing DVI files. If a user were tricked into opening a specially
crafted DVI file, an attacker could cause Evince to crash or potentially
execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the
program.

In the default installation, attackers would be isolated by the Evince
AppArmor profile.

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

Ubuntu 11.04:
libevdocument3 2.32.0-0ubuntu12.4

Ubuntu 10.10:
libevdocument3 2.32.0-0ubuntu1.2

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
libevdocument2 2.30.3-0ubuntu1.3
