Category: | Red Hat Local Security Checks |
Title: | RedHat Update for evince RHSA-2011:0009-01 |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the 'evince'; package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'evince' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Evince is a document viewer. An array index error was found in the DeVice Independent (DVI) renderer's PK and VF font file parsers. A DVI file that references a specially-crafted font file could, when opened, cause Evince to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Evince. (CVE-2010-2640, CVE-2010-2641) A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the DVI renderer's AFM font file parser. A DVI file that references a specially-crafted font file could, when opened, cause Evince to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Evince. (CVE-2010-2642) An integer overflow flaw was found in the DVI renderer's TFM font file parser. A DVI file that references a specially-crafted font file could, when opened, cause Evince to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Evince. (CVE-2010-2643) Note: The above issues are not exploitable unless an attacker can trick the user into installing a malicious font file. Red Hat would like to thank the Evince development team for reporting these issues. Upstream acknowledges Jon Larimer of IBM X-Force as the original reporter of these issues. Users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct these issues. Affected Software/OS: evince on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 6), Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 6), Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation (v. 6) Solution: Please Install the Updated Packages. CVSS Score: 7.6 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
