Fedora 42: GeographicLib Critical Buffer Overflow CVE-2025-60751

Update to GeographicLib-2.5.2, fixes CVE-2025-60751.. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2025-65e3f233bf 2025-11-07 01:27:09.764780+00:00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : GeographicLib Product : Fedora 42 Version : 2.5.2 Release : 1.fc42 URL : https://github.com/geographiclib/geographiclib Summary : Library for geographic coordinate transformations Description : GeographicLib is a small set of C++ classes for performing conversions between geographic, UTM, UPS, MGRS, geocentric, and local Cartesian coordinates, for gravity (e.g., EGM2008), geoid height and geomagnetic field (e.g., WMM2010) calculations, and for solving geodesic problems. The emphasis is on returning accurate results with errors close to round-off (about 5\u201315 nanometers). New accurate algorithms for Geodesics on an ellipsoid of revolution and Transverse Mercator projection have been developed for this library. The functionality of the library can be accessed from user code, from the Utility programs provided, or via the Implementations in other languages. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Update to GeographicLib-2.5.2, fixes CVE-2025-60751. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Oct 29 2025 Sandro Mani - 2.5.2-1 - Update to 2.5.2 * Wed Jul 23 2025 Fedora Release Engineering - 2.5-6 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_43_Mass_Rebuild * Sun Jul 20 2025 Sandro Mani - 2.5-5 - Fix bad requires * Sat Jul 19 2025 Python Maint - 2.5-4 - Rebuilt for Python 3.14 * Fri Jul 18 2025 Sandro Mani - 2.5-3 - Drop python subpackages, they now live in python-geographiclib * Mon Jun 2 2025 Python Maint - 2.5-2 - Rebuilt for Python 3.14 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug#2405440 - CVE-2025-60751 GeographicLib: GeographicLib buffer overflow [fedora-42] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2405440 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.

Debian 11: Geographiclib Critical Buffer Overflow Advisory DLA-4361-1

Geographiclib is a C++ library to solve geodesic problems. A stack buffer overflow occurs when the GeoConvert tool receives a crafted input. The overflow occurs because the program does not properly validate an internal index, allowing an out-of-bounds write on the stack. An attacker can exploit this . ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian LTS Advisory DLA-4361-1 This email address is being protected from spambots.

A stack buffer overflow occurs when the GeoConvert tool receives a crafted input. The overflow occurs because the program does not properly validate an internal index, allowing an out-of-bounds write on the stack. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to hijack the program's control flow by overwriting a return address to point to a libc function and execute arbitrary code. For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version 1.51-1+deb11u1. We recommend that you upgrade your geographiclib packages. For the detailed security status of geographiclib please refer to its security tracker page at: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/source-package/geographiclib Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found at: https://wiki.debian.org/LTS .
