A new Gnumeric vulnerability update is available for Ubuntu Linux. Here the announcement:
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-604-1 April 22, 2008
gnumeric vulnerability
CVE-2008-0668
==========================
==========================
=========
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Ubuntu 6.10
Ubuntu 7.04
Ubuntu 7.10
This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
gnumeric 1.6.3-0ubuntu4.1
Ubuntu 6.10:
gnumeric 1.7.0-1ubuntu4.1
Ubuntu 7.04:
gnumeric 1.7.8-0ubuntu1.1
Ubuntu 7.10:
gnumeric 1.7.11-1ubuntu3.1
After a standard system upgrade you need to restart gnumeric to effect
the necessary changes.
Details follow:
Thilo Pfennig and Morten Welinder discovered that the XLS spreadsheet
handling code in Gnumeric did not correctly calculate needed memory sizes.
If a user or automated system were tricked into loading a specially crafted
XLS document, a remote attacker could execute arbitrary code with user
privileges.
Updated packages for Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
