NASL family Red Hat Local Security Checks NASL id REDHAT-RHSA-2005-344.NASL description Updated gtk2 packages that fix a double free vulnerability are now available. This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. The gtk2 package contains the GIMP ToolKit (GTK+), a library for creating graphical user interfaces for the X Window System. A bug was found in the way gtk2 processes BMP images. It is possible that a specially crafted BMP image could cause a denial of service attack on applications linked against gtk2. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-0891 to this issue. Users of gtk2 are advised to upgrade to these packages, which contain a backported patch and is not vulnerable to this issue. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 17679 published 2005-04-02 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2005-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/17679 title RHEL 3 / 4 : gtk2 (RHSA-2005:344) NASL family Fedora Local Security Checks NASL id FEDORA_2005-266.NASL description David Costanzo found a bug in the way gdk-pixbuf processes BMP images.

This allows an attacker to provide a carefully crafted XPM image which could possibly allow for arbitrary code execution in the context of the user viewing the image. (CVE-2005-3186) Ludwig Nussel discovered an integer overflow bug in the way gdk-pixbuf processes XPM images. An attacker could create a carefully crafted XPM file in such a way that it could cause an application linked with gdk-pixbuf to execute arbitrary code or crash when the file was opened by a victim. (CVE-2005-2976) Ludwig Nussel also discovered an infinite-loop denial of service bug in the way gdk-pixbuf processes XPM images. An attacker could create a carefully crafted XPM file in such a way that it could cause an application linked with gdk-pixbuf to stop responding when the file was opened by a victim. (CVE-2005-2975) The gtk+2.0 library also contains the same gdk-pixbuf code with the same vulnerability. The Corporate Server 2.1 packages have additional patches to address CVE-2004-0782,0783,0788 (additional XPM/ICO image issues), CVE-2004-0753 (BMP image issues) and CVE-2005-0891 (additional BMP issues). These were overlooked on this platform with earlier updates. The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 20446 published 2006-01-15 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2006-2019 Tenable Network Security, Inc. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/20446 title Mandrake Linux Security Advisory : gdk-pixbuf (MDKSA-2005:214) NASL family CentOS Local Security Checks NASL id CENTOS_RHSA-2005-343.NASL description Updated gdk-pixbuf packages that fix a double free vulnerability are now available.
