Detail
Problem Description: Netscape Navigator and Netscape Communicator 4.8 as distributed with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 contain security flaws and should not be used. 2. Problem description: Netscape Navigator and Netscape Communicator have been removed from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 CD-ROM distribution as part of Update 5. These packages were based on Netscape 4.8, which is known to be vulnerable to recent critical security issues, such as CAN-2004-0597, CAN-2004-0598, and CAN-2004-0599. Netscape 7.2 contains fixes for these issues and is available from http://www.netscape.com/. Netscape 4.8 packages will also remain available via Red Hat Network for those who choose to use them despite their known security vulnerabilities. 3. Solution: Red Hat Enterprise 2.1 users who do not need the functionality of Netscape 4.8 should uninstall the netscape packages. 4.

Id | Description |
---|---|
8326 | libpng png_handle_tRNS Remote Overflow A remote overflow exists in libpng. The library function png_handle_tRNS fails to perform a length check on PNG images resulting in a buffer overflow. With a specially crafted PNG file, an attacker can cause the execution of code resulting in a loss of integrity. |
8316 | libpng pngrutil.c Multiple Function Progressive Display Image Reading Overflow A potential local integer overflow exists in libpng. The library function png_push_read_chunk contains code that might be susceptible to integer overflows. It is currently unknown how dangerous this code might be. With a specially crafted request, an attacker might cause crashes or execution of code resulting in a loss of availability. |
8315 | libpng png_read_png Integer Overflow A local overflow exists in libpng. The library function png_read_png fails to validate the height of input PNG files resulting in a possible integer overflow. With a specially crafted request, an attacker might cause a crash of the applicatioin resulting in a loss of availability. |
8314 | libpng png_handle_sPLT Local Overflow A local overflow exists in libpng. The library function png_handle_sPLT fails to validate input resulting in a possible integer overflow. With a specially crafted request, an attacker might theoretically cause execution of code resulting in a loss of integrity. |
8313 | libpng png_handle_iCCP() Function NULL Pointer Dereference DoS A local overflow exists in libpng. The library function png_handle_iCCP fails to validate the input length from PNG files resulting in a possible NULL-pointer being referenced. With a specially crafted request, an attacker can cause denial of service which might result in a loss of availability for the application. |
8312 | libpng png_handle_sBIT() Local Overflow A local overflow exists in libpng. The library function png_handle_sBIT relies on checks in other functions to perform input validation resulting in a possible buffer overflow. With a specially crafted PNG file, an attacker might cause execution of code resulting in a loss of integrity. |
