Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.72589
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandriva Security Advisory MDVSA-2012:174 (libtiff)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:
The remote host is missing an update to libtiff
announced via advisory MDVSA-2012:174.

Multiple vulnerabilities was found and corrected in libtiff:

Heap-based buffer overflow in tif_pixarlog.c in LibTIFF before 4.0.3
allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application
crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted TIFF image
using the PixarLog Compression format (CVE-2012-4447).

ppm2tiff does not check the return value of the TIFFScanlineSize
function, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted PPM image
that triggers an integer overflow, a zero-memory allocation, and a
heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2012-4564).

The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.

Affected: 2011., 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.
