Category: | Red Hat Local Security Checks |
Title: | RedHat Update for evince RHSA-2017:2388-01 |
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: The evince packages provide a simple multi-page document viewer for Portable Document Format (PDF), PostScript (PS), Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) files, and, with additional back-ends, also the Device Independent File format (DVI) files. Security Fix(es): * It was found that evince did not properly sanitize the command line which is run to untar Comic Book Tar (CBT) files, thereby allowing command injection. A specially crafted CBT file, when opened by evince or evince-thumbnailer, could execute arbitrary commands in the context of the evince program. (CVE-2017-1000083) Red Hat would like to thank Felix Wilhelm (Google Security Team) for reporting this issue. Affected Software/OS: evince on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 7) Solution: Please Install the Updated Packages. CVSS Score: 6.8 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
