Detail

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog) Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog) Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger)

The following packages are affected:

dia dia-gnome dia-libs

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to version 0.93-4ubuntu2.1 (for Ubuntu 4.10), 0.94.0-5ubuntu1.2 (for Ubuntu 5.04), or 0.94.0-11ubuntu1.1 (for Ubuntu 5.10). In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes.

Details follow:

Three buffer overflows were discovered in the Xfig file format importer. By tricking a user into opening a specially crafted .fig file with dia, an attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges.
