Category:	Debian Local Security Checks
Title:	Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-3459-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libxpm' package(s) announced via the DLA-3459-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libxpm' package(s) announced via the DLA-3459-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: libxpm is a library handling X PixMap image format (so called xpm files). xpm files are an extension of the monochrome X BitMap format specified in the X protocol, and are commonly used in traditional X applications. CVE-2022-4883 When processing files with .Z or .gz extensions, the library calls external programs to compress and uncompress files, relying on the PATH environment variable to find these programs, which could allow a malicious user to execute other programs by manipulating the PATH environment variable. CVE-2022-44617 When processing a file with width of 0 and a very large height, some parser functions will be called repeatedly and can lead to an infinite loop, resulting in a Denial of Service in the application linked to the library. CVE-2022-46285 When parsing a file with a comment not closed, an end-of-file condition will not be detected, leading to an infinite loop and resulting in a Denial of Service in the application linked to the library. For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version 1:3.5.12-1+deb10u1. We recommend that you upgrade your libxpm packages.
