Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.12.2006.265.1 |
Category: | Ubuntu Local Security Checks |
Title: | Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-265-1) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the 'libcairo' package(s) announced via the USN-265-1 advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'libcairo' package(s) announced via the USN-265-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: When rendering glyphs, the cairo graphics rendering library did not check the maximum length of character strings. A request to display an excessively long string with cairo caused a program crash due to an X library error. Mike Davis discovered that this could be turned into a Denial of Service attack in Evolution. An email with an attachment with very long lines caused Evolution to crash repeatedly until that email was manually removed from the mail folder. This only affects Ubuntu 5.10. Previous Ubuntu releases did not use libcairo for text rendering. Affected Software/OS: 'libcairo' package(s) on Ubuntu 5.10. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 5.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P |
