-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2011:131-1 http://www.mandriva.com/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : libxml Date : October 9, 2011 Affected: 2011. _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Multiple vulnerabilities has been discovered and corrected in libxml/libxml2: Integer overflow in xpath.c in libxml2 2.6.x through 2.6.32 and 2.7.x through 2.7.8, and libxml 1.8.16 and earlier, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted XML file that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow when adding a new namespace node, related to handling of XPath expressions (CVE-2011-1944). The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue. Update: Packages were misssing for Mandriva Linux 2011 with the MDVSA-2011:131 advisory which are now being provided. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-1944 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Linux 2011: 66b5d13d1e9e6dc5a79d7f6bdce5e6bc 2011/i586/libxml1-1.8.17-18.1-mdv2011.0.i586.rpm 022ffa3441d84441f2bd312f356549ce 2011/i586/libxml1-devel-1.8.17-18.1-mdv2011.0.i586.rpm 6384102d5b61ac2c7cf4d790d90f5919 2011/i586/libxml2_2-2.7.8-6.1-mdv2011.0.i586.rpm 284c49656c3988fcbdba703b904205fa 2011/i586/libxml2-devel-2.7.8-6.1-mdv2011.0.i586.rpm 73489a6fbb129af2cd735480cf029168 2011/i586/libxml2-python-2.7.8-6.1-mdv2011.0.i586.rpm 9a813862bf2269f89bb7e81414b3e093 2011/i586/libxml2-utils-2.7.8-6.1-mdv2011.0.i586.rpm 8935abd10e88cf92c7c857a1bf8c6290 2011/SRPMS/libxml-1.8.17-18.1.src.rpm 85c9a012833b1de55c7f0bc26a79a2b1 2011/SRPMS/libxml2-2.7.8-6.1.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2011/X86_64: 9bc39714f2af5c88bb7bedc7bc72856d 2011/x86_64/lib64xml1-1.8.17-18.1-mdv2011.0.x86_64.rpm 083c2e62c3609ed8cff788fb2cda1b58 2011/x86_64/lib64xml1-devel-1.8.17-18.1-mdv2011.0.x86_64.rpm 097866d7240ae59af8843e487af3c755 2011/x86_64/lib64xml2_2-2.7.8-6.1-mdv2011.0.x86_64.rpm ef477ce0daadd3d8427a76d64b0aa2f1 2011/x86_64/lib64xml2-devel-2.7.8-6.1-mdv2011.0.x86_64.rpm aafe476b2a6ac9b00cd1e91188680ac9 2011/x86_64/libxml2-python-2.7.8-6.1-mdv2011.0.x86_64.rpm 16e64c023b78b45c912640c777df415d 2011/x86_64/libxml2-utils-2.7.8-6.1-mdv2011.0.x86_64.rpm 8935abd10e88cf92c7c857a1bf8c6290 2011/SRPMS/libxml-1.8.17-18.1.src.rpm 85c9a012833b1de55c7f0bc26a79a2b1 2011/SRPMS/libxml2-2.7.8-6.1.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
