Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.840026
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-473-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'libgd2' package(s) announced via the USN-473-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'libgd2' package(s) announced via the USN-473-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
A buffer overflow was discovered in libgd2's font renderer. By tricking
an application using libgd2 into rendering a specially crafted string
with a JIS encoded font, a remote attacker could read heap memory or
crash the application, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2007-0455)

Xavier Roche discovered that libgd2 did not correctly validate PNG
callback results. If an application were tricked into processing a
specially crafted PNG image, it would monopolize CPU resources. Since
libgd2 is often used in PHP and Perl web applications, this could lead
to a remote denial of service. (CVE-2007-2756)

Affected Software/OS:
'libgd2' package(s) on Ubuntu 6.06, Ubuntu 6.10, Ubuntu 7.04.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
7.5

CVSS Vector:
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
