Red Hat Enterprise Linux: RHSA-2005:802-01 Low: xloadimage Buffer Overflow

A new xloadimage package that fixes bugs in handling malformed tiff and pbm/pnm/ppm images, and in handling metacharacters in file names is now available.. - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Low: xloadimage security update Advisory ID: RHSA-2005:802-01 Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2005:802.html Issue date: 2005-10-18 Updated on: 2005-10-18 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux CVE Names: CAN-2005-3178 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------1. Summary: A new xloadimage package that fixes bugs in handling malformed tiff and pbm/pnm/ppm images, and in handling metacharacters in file names is now available. This update has been rated as having low security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (Advanced Server) version 2.1 - i386, ia64 Red Hat Linux Advanced Workstation 2.1 - ia64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 2.1 - i386 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 2.1 - i386 Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Desktop version 3 - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 4 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop version 4 - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 4 - i386, ia64, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 4 - i386, ia64, x86_64 3. Problem description: The xloadimage utility displays images in an X Window System window, loads images into the root window, or writes images into a file. Xloadimage supports many image types (including GIF, TIFF, JPEG, XPM, and XBM). A flaw was discovered in xloadimage via which an attacker can construct a NIFF image with a very long embedded imagetitle. This image can cause a buffer overflow. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2005-3178 to this issue. All users of xloadimage should upgrade to this erratum package, which contains backported patches to correct these issues. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. Use Red Hat Network to download and update your packages. To launch the Red Hat Update Agent, use the following command: up2date For information on how to install packages manually, refer to the following Web page for the System Administration or Customization guide specific to your system: https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_enterprise_linux/10 5.
