A new TIFF library vulnerabilities update is available for Ubuntu Linux. Here the announcement:
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-277-1 May 03, 2006
tiff vulnerabilities
CVE-2006-2024, CVE-2006-2025, CVE-2006-2026, CVE-2006-2120
===========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:
Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog)
Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger)
The following packages are affected:
libtiff4
The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 3.6.1-5ubuntu0.3 (for Ubuntu 5.04), or 3.7.3-1ubuntu1.1 (for
Ubuntu 5.10). After a standard system upgrade you need to reboot your
computer to effect the necessary changes, since this library is used
by many client and server applications.
Details follow:
Tavis Ormandy and Andrey Kiselev discovered that libtiff did not
sufficiently verify the validity of TIFF files. By tricking an user
into opening a specially crafted TIFF file with any application that
uses libtiff, an attacker could exploit this to crash the application
or even execute arbitrary code with the application's privileges.
Updated packages for Ubuntu 5.04:
