-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2011:152 http://www.mandriva.com/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : ncompress Date : October 17, 2011 Affected: 2010.1, Enterprise Server 5.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: A vulnerability has been found and corrected in ncompress: An integer underflow leading to array index error was found in the way gzip used to decompress files / archives, compressed with the Lempel-Ziv-Welch (LZW) compression algorithm. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted LZW compressed gzip archive, which once decompressed by a local, unsuspecting user would lead to gzip crash, or, potentially to arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the user running gzip (CVE-2010-0001). The updated packages have been upgraded to the 4.2.4.4 version which is not vulnerable to this issue. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-0001 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Linux 2010.1: 21d31dc01147a832568ca56e1dd61447 2010.1/i586/ncompress-4.2.4.4-0.1mdv2010.2.i586.rpm ba9d02cc91a5ebb50e0f8d4c63cb23ec 2010.1/SRPMS/ncompress-4.2.4.4-0.1mdv2010.2.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2010.1/X86_64: d289f3b0e72026349addcaa45c92bb95 2010.1/x86_64/ncompress-4.2.4.4-0.1mdv2010.2.x86_64.rpm ba9d02cc91a5ebb50e0f8d4c63cb23ec 2010.1/SRPMS/ncompress-4.2.4.4-0.1mdv2010.2.src.rpm Mandriva Enterprise Server 5: 82d9b6490242cb9257f186f0cfcb682e mes5/i586/ncompress-4.2.4.4-0.1mdvmes5.2.i586.rpm 564695e65868d680d3b218307b24189a mes5/SRPMS/ncompress-4.2.4.4-0.1mdvmes5.2.src.rpm Mandriva Enterprise Server 5/X86_64: bc945e39f76a798f5010aa541647cd8c mes5/x86_64/ncompress-4.2.4.4-0.1mdvmes5.2.x86_64.rpm 564695e65868d680d3b218307b24189a mes5/SRPMS/ncompress-4.2.4.4-0.1mdvmes5.2.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
