Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.1.2.2017.1185
Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-1185-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'sam2p' package(s) announced via the DLA-1185-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'sam2p' package(s) announced via the DLA-1185-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
It was discovered that sam2p, a utility to convert raster images and other image formats, was affected by an integer overflow vulnerability with resultant heap-based buffer overflow in input-bmp.ci because width and height multiplications occur unsafely. This may lead to an application crash or unspecified other impact when a maliciously crafted file is processed.

For Debian 7 Wheezy, these problems have been fixed in version 0.49.1-1+deb7u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your sam2p packages.
