Detail
Problem Description: Updated freetype packages that fix several security flaws are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux. This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (Advanced Server) version 2.1 - i386, ia64 Red Hat Linux Advanced Workstation 2.1 - ia64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 2.1 - i386 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 2.1 - i386 Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Desktop version 3 - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 4 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop version 4 - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 4 - i386, ia64, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 4 - i386, ia64, x86_64 3. Problem description: FreeType is a free, high-quality, and portable font engine. Chris Evans discovered several integer underflow and overflow flaws in the FreeType font engine. If a user loads a carefully crafted font file with a program linked against FreeType, it could cause the application to crash or execute arbitrary code as the user. While it is uncommon for a user to explicitly load a font file, there are several application file formats which contain embedded fonts that are parsed by FreeType. (CVE-2006-0747, CVE-2006-1861, CVE-2006-3467) A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the FreeType font engine. An application linked against FreeType can crash upon loading a malformed font file. (CVE-2006-2661) Users of FreeType should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. 5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/): 183676 - CVE-2006-0747 Freetype integer underflow (CVE-2006-2661) 190593 - CVE-2006-1861 freetype multiple integer overflows (CVE-2006-3467) |
