BugTraq ID : 15428
Debian Bug : 339431

Several vulnerabilities have been found in gdk-pixbuf, the Gtk+ GdkPixBuf XPM image rendering library. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

CVE-2005-2975

Ludwig Nussel discovered an infinite loop when processing XPM images that allows an attacker to cause a denial of service via a specially crafted XPM file.

CVE-2005-2976

Ludwig Nussel discovered an integer overflow in the way XPM images are processed that could lead to the execution of arbitrary code or crash the application via a specially crafted XPM file.

CVE-2005-3186

"infamous41md" discovered an integer in the XPM processing routine that can be used to execute arbitrary code via a traditional heap overflow.

The following matrix explains which versions fix these problems:

  old stable (woody) stable (sarge) unstable (sid)
gdk-pixbuf 0.17.0-2woody3 0.22.0-8.1 0.22.0-11

December 2nd, 2005 http://www.debian.org/security/faq


Package : helix-player
Vulnerability : buffer overflow
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2005-2629
BugTraq ID : 15381

An integer overflow has been discovered in helix-player, the helix audio and video player. This flaw could allow a remote attacker to run arbitrary code on a victims computer by supplying a specially crafted network resource.

This vulnerability is fixed by version 1.0.6-1 in unstable. Helix-player is not currently in the testing distribution.

The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain a helix-player package.

Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2005-1116
2005-12-01

Product : Fedora Core 3
Name : perl
Version : 5.8.5
Release : 18.FC3
Summary : The Perl programming language.

Description :
Perl is a high-level programming language with roots in C, sed, awk and shell scripting. Perl is good at handling processes and files, and is especially good at handling text. Perl's hallmarks are practicality and efficiency. While it is used to do a lot of different things, Perl's most common applications are system administration utilities and web programming. A large proportion of the CGI scripts on the web are written in Perl. You need the perl package installed on your system so that your system can handle Perl scripts.

Install this package if you want to program in Perl or enable your system to handle Perl scripts.

Fedora Legacy


Fedora Legacy Update Advisory

Synopsis: Updated php packages fix security issues
Advisory ID: FLSA:166943
Issue date: 2005-12-02
Product: Red Hat Linux, Fedora Core
Keywords: Bugfix
CVE Names: CVE-2005-2498 CVE-2005-3390 CVE-2005-3389 CVE-2005-3388 CVE-2005-3353



1. Topic:

Updated PHP packages that fix multiple security issues are now available.

PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language commonly used with the Apache HTTP Web server.

[Updated 2nd December 2005]
Red Hat Linux 9 packages have been updated to add missing security patches.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 7.3 - i386
Red Hat Linux 9 - i386
Fedora Core 1 - i386
Fedora Core 2 - i386

3. Problem description:

A bug was discovered in the PEAR XML-RPC Server package included in PHP. If a PHP script is used which implements an XML-RPC Server using the PEAR XML-RPC package, then it is possible for a remote attacker to construct an XML-RPC request which can cause PHP to execute arbitrary PHP commands as the 'apache' user. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org/) has assigned the name CVE-2005-2498 to this issue.

A flaw was found in the way PHP registers global variables during a file upload request. A remote attacker could submit a carefully crafted multipart/form-data POST request that would overwrite the $GLOBALS array, altering expected script behavior, and possibly leading to the execution of arbitrary PHP commands. Please note that this vulnerability only affects installations which have register_globals enabled in the PHP configuration file, which is not a default or recommended option. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project assigned the name CVE-2005-3390 to this issue.

A flaw was found in the PHP parse_str() function. If a PHP script passes only one argument to the parse_str() function, and the script can be forced to abort execution during operation (for example due to the memory_limit setting), the register_globals may be enabled even if it is disabled in the PHP configuration file. This vulnerability only affects installations that have PHP scripts using the parse_str function in this way. (CVE-2005-3389)

A Cross-Site Scripting flaw was found in the phpinfo() function. If a victim can be tricked into following a malicious URL to a site with a page displaying the phpinfo() output, it may be possible to inject javascript or HTML content into the displayed page or steal data such as cookies. This vulnerability only affects installations which allow users to view the output of the phpinfo() function. As the phpinfo() function outputs a large amount of information about the current state of PHP, it should only be used during debugging or if protected by authentication. (CVE-2005-3388)

A denial of service flaw was found in the way PHP processes EXIF image data. It is possible for an attacker to cause PHP to crash by supplying carefully crafted EXIF image data. (CVE-2005-3353)

Users of PHP should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches that resolve these issues.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory only contains the desired RPMs.

Please note that this update is also available via yum and apt. Many people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use yum issue:

yum update

or to use apt:

apt-get update; apt-get upgrade

This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. This assumes that you have yum or apt-get configured for obtaining Fedora Legacy content. Please visit http://www.fedoralegacy.org/docs for directions on how to configure yum and apt-get.
