A zlib security update is available for Mandriva Linux

_______________________________________________________________________

Mandriva Linux Security Update Advisory
_______________________________________________________________________

Package name: zlib
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2005:124
Date: July 22nd, 2005

Affected versions: 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, Corporate 3.0,
Multi Network Firewall 2.0
______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

A previous zlib update (MDKSA-2005:112; CAN-2005-2096) fixed an overflow flaw in the zlib program. While that update did indeed fix the reported overflow issue, Markus Oberhumber discovered additional ways that a specially-crafted compressed stream could trigger an overflow. An attacker could create such a stream that would cause a linked application to crash if opened by a user.

The updated packages are provided to protect against this flaw. The Corporate Server 2.1 product is not affected by this vulnerability.
