Fedora 23: cyrus-imapd Security Update - Buffer Overflows and Fixes

Update to 2.4.18, rhbz#1267871 and rhbz#1267878. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2015-e7712d6c32 2015-11-17 14:29:33.238135 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : cyrus-imapd Product : Fedora 23 Version : 2.4.18 Release : 1.fc23 URL : http://www.cyrusimap.org/ Summary : A high-performance mail server with IMAP, POP3, NNTP and SIEVE support Description : The cyrus-imapd package contains the core of the Cyrus IMAP server. It is a scaleable enterprise mail system designed for use from small to large enterprise environments using standards-based internet mail technologies. A full Cyrus IMAP implementation allows a seamless mail and bulletin board environment to be set up across multiple servers. It differs from other IMAP server implementations in that it is run on "sealed" servers, where users are not normally permitted to log in and have no system account on the server. The mailbox database is stored in parts of the file system that are private to the Cyrus IMAP server. All user access to mail is through software using the IMAP, POP3 or KPOP protocols. It also includes support for virtual domains, NNTP, mailbox annotations, and much more. The private mailbox database design gives the server large advantages in efficiency, scalability and administratability. Multiple concurrent read/write connections to the same mailbox are permitted. The server supports access control lists on mailboxes and storage quotas on mailbox hierarchies. The Cyrus IMAP server supports the IMAP4rev1 protocol described in RFC 3501. IMAP4rev1 has been approved as a proposed standard. It supports any authentication mechanism available from the SASL library, imaps/pop3s/nntps (IMAP/POP3/NNTP encrypted using SSL and TLSv1) can be used for security. The server supports single instance store where possible when an email message is addressed to multiple recipients, SIEVE providesserver side email filtering. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Update to 2.4.18, rhbz#1267871 and rhbz#1267878 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #1267869 - CVE-2015-8076 cyrus-imapd: Out of bounds heap read in index_urlfetch https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1267869 [ 2 ] Bug #1267875 - cyrus-imapd: Multiple potential buffer overflows https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1267875 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the FreeType font library. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: . -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian Security Advisory DSA-2105-1 This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. http://www.debian.org/security/ Giuseppe Iuculano September 07, 2010 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Package : freetype Vulnerability : several Problem type : local(remote) Debian-specific: no CVE Id(s) : CVE-2010-1797 CVE-2010-2541 CVE-2010-2805 CVE-2010-2806 CVE-2010-2807 CVE-2010-2808 CVE-2010-3053 Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the FreeType font library. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2010-1797 Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the cff_decoder_parse_charstrings function in the CFF Type2 CharStrings interpreter in cff/cffgload.c in FreeType allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via crafted CFF opcodes in embedded fonts in a PDF document, as demonstrated by JailbreakMe. CVE-2010-2541 Buffer overflow in ftmulti.c in the ftmulti demo program in FreeType allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted font file. CVE-2010-2805 The FT_Stream_EnterFrame function in base/ftstream.c in FreeType does not properly validate certain position values, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted font file CVE-2010-2806 Array index error in the t42_parse_sfnts function in type42/t42parse.c in FreeType allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possiblyexecute arbitrary code via negative size values for certain strings in FontType42 font files, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow. CVE-2010-2807 FreeType uses incorrect integer data types during bounds checking, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted font file. CVE-2010-2808 Buffer overflow in the Mac_Read_POST_Resource function in base/ftobjs.c in FreeType allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted Adobe Type 1 Mac Font File (aka LWFN) font. CVE-2010-3053 bdf/bdflib.c in FreeType allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted BDF font file, related to an attempted modification of a value in a static string. For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in version 2.3.7-2+lenny3 For the unstable distribution (sid) and the testing distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in version 2.4.2-1 We recommend that you upgrade your freetype package.
