Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.840936
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-1289-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'colord' package(s) announced via the USN-1289-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'colord' package(s) announced via the USN-1289-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
It was discovered that colord incorrectly handled certain SQL queries. A
local attacker could exploit this to modify arbitrary sqlite databases. On
Ubuntu, colord runs as its own user by default, so standard file
permissions would limit which databases could be altered.

Affected Software/OS:
'colord' package(s) on Ubuntu 11.10.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
4.6

CVSS Vector:
