Mandriva Linux Security Update Advisory
_______________________________________________________________________

Package name: xli
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2005:076
Date: April 20th, 2005

Affected versions: 10.1, 10.2, Corporate 3.0,
Corporate Server 2.1
______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

A number of vulnerabilities have been found in the xli image viewer. Tavis Ormandy of the Gentoo Linux Security Audit Team discovered a flaw in the handling of compressed images where shell meta-characters are not properly escaped (CAN-2005-0638). It was also found that insufficient validation of image properties could potentially result in buffer management errors (CAN-2005-0639).

The updated packages have been patched to correct these problems.
