Mandrakelinux Security Update Advisory
_______________________________________________________________________

Package name: libxpm4
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2004:137
Date: November 22nd, 2004

Affected versions: 10.0, 10.1, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1
______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

The XPM library which is part of the XFree86/XOrg project is used by several GUI applications to process XPM image files.

A source code review of the XPM library, done by Thomas Biege of the SuSE Security-Team revealed several different kinds of bugs. These bugs include integer overflows, out-of-bounds memory access, shell command execution, path traversal, and endless loops.

These bugs can be exploited by remote and/or local attackers to gain access to the system or to escalate their local privileges, by using a specially crafted xpm image.

Updated packages are patched to correct all these issues.
