Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.50616
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2004:137 (libxpm4)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to libxpm4
announced via advisory MDKSA-2004:137.

The XPM library which is part of the XFree86/XOrg project is used
by several GUI applications to process XPM image files.

A source code review of the XPM library, done by Thomas Biege of the
SuSE Security-Team revealed several different kinds of bugs. These bugs
include integer overflows, out-of-bounds memory access, shell command
execution, path traversal, and endless loops.

These bugs can be exploited by remote and/or local attackers to gain
access to the system or to escalate their local privileges, by using a
specially crafted xpm image.

Updated packages are patched to correct all these issues.

Affected versions: 10.0, 10.1, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
