Fedora Legacy Update Advisory
Synopsis: Updated lesstif packages fix security issues
Advisory ID: FLSA:152803
Issue date: 2006-01-09
Product: Red Hat Linux, Fedora Core
Keywords: Bugfix
CVE Names: CVE-2004-0687 CVE-2004-0688 CVE-2004-0914
CVE-2005-0605
---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Topic:
Updated lesstif packages that fix flaws in the Xpm image library are
now available.
lesstif is a free replacement for OSF/Motif(R), which provides a full
set of widgets for application development.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Linux 7.3 - i386
Red Hat Linux 9 - i386
Fedora Core 1 - i386
Fedora Core 2 - i386
3. Problem description:
During a source code audit, Chris Evans and others discovered several
stack overflow flaws and an integer overflow flaw in the libXpm library
used to decode XPM (X PixMap) images. A vulnerable version of this
library was found within LessTif. An attacker could create a carefully
crafted XPM file which would cause an application to crash or
potentially execute arbitrary code if opened by a victim. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the
names CVE-2004-0687, CVE-2004-0688, and CVE-2004-0914 to these issues.
An integer overflow flaw was found in libXpm; a vulnerable version of
this library is found within LessTif. An attacker could create a
malicious XPM file that would execute arbitrary code if opened by a
victim using an application linked to LessTif. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the
name CVE-2005-0605 to this issue.
Users of lesstif are advised to upgrade to these errata packages,
which contain backported security patches correcting these issues.
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Fvh [filenames]
where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which
are not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note
that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only*
contains the desired RPMs.
Please note that this update is also available via yum and apt. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use yum issue:
yum update
or to use apt:
apt-get update; apt-get upgrade
This will start an interactive process that will result in the
appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. This assumes that you
have yum or apt-get configured for obtaining Fedora Legacy content.
Please visit http://www.fedoralegacy.org/docs for directions on how to
configure yum and apt-get.

These packages are GPG signed by Fedora Legacy for security. Our key is
available from http://www.fedoralegacy.org/about/security.php
You can verify each package with the following command:
rpm --checksig -v <filename>
If you only wish to verify that each package has not been corrupted or
tampered with, examine only the sha1sum with the following command:
sha1sum <filename>
