Synopsis:          Important: raptor security update
Advisory ID:       RHSA-2012:0410-01
Product:           Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Advisory URL:      https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2012:0410.html
Issue date:        2012-03-22
CVE Names:         CVE-2012-0037 
====================================================================
1. Summary:

Updated raptor packages that fix one security issue are now available for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having
important security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS)
base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the
CVE link in the References section.

3. Description:

Raptor provides parsers for Resource Description Framework (RDF) files.

An XML External Entity expansion flaw was found in the way Raptor processed
RDF files. If an application linked against Raptor were to open a 
specially-crafted RDF file, it could possibly allow a remote attacker to 
obtain a copy of an arbitrary local file that the user running the
application had access to. A bug in the way Raptor handled external
entities could cause that application to crash or, possibly, execute
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
(CVE-2012-0037)

Red Hat would like to thank Timothy D. Morgan of VSR for reporting this
issue.

All Raptor users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch to correct this issue. All running applications
linked against Raptor must be restarted for this update to take effect.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
