Detail
Problem Description: An updated gpdf package that fixes multiple security issues is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4. This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: 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. Description: GPdf is a viewer for Portable Document Format (PDF) files. Multiple integer overflow flaws were found in GPdf. An attacker could create a malicious PDF file that would cause GPdf to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code when opened. (CVE-2009-0791, CVE-2009-1188, CVE-2009-3604, CVE-2009-3608, CVE-2009-3609) Red Hat would like to thank Adam Zabrocki for reporting the CVE-2009-3604 issue, and Chris Rohlf for reporting the CVE-2009-3608 issue. Users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which contains a backported patch to correct these issues. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-11259 5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/): 491840 - CVE-2009-0791 xpdf: multiple integer overflows 495907 - CVE-2009-1188 xpdf/poppler: SplashBitmap integer overflow 526637 - CVE-2009-3608 xpdf/poppler: integer overflow in ObjectStream::ObjectStream (oCERT-2009-016) 526893 - CVE-2009-3609 xpdf/poppler: ImageStream::ImageStream integer overflow 526911 - CVE-2009-3604 xpdf/poppler: Splash::drawImage integer overflow and missing allocation return value check |
