NASL family CentOS Local Security Checks NASL id CENTOS_RHSA-2009-0329.NASL description Updated freetype packages that fix various security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and 4. This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. FreeType is a free, high-quality, portable font engine that can open and manage font files. It also loads, hints, and renders individual glyphs efficiently. These packages provide both the FreeType 1 and FreeType 2 font engines. Tavis Ormandy of the Google Security Team discovered several integer overflow flaws in the FreeType 2 font engine. If a user loaded a carefully-crafted font file with an application linked against FreeType 2, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2009-0946) Chris Evans discovered multiple integer overflow flaws in the FreeType font engine. If a user loaded a carefully-crafted font file with an application linked against FreeType, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2006-1861) An integer overflow flaw was found in the way the FreeType font engine processed TrueType(r) Font (TTF) files. If a user loaded a carefully-crafted font file with an application linked against FreeType, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2007-2754) A flaw was discovered in the FreeType TTF font-file format parser when the TrueType virtual machine Byte Code Interpreter (BCI) is enabled. If a user loaded a carefully-crafted font file with an application linked against FreeType, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2008-1808) The CVE-2008-1808 flaw did not affect the freetype packages as distributed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and 4, as they are not compiled with TrueType BCI support. A fix for this flaw has been included in this update as users may choose to recompile the freetype packages in order to enable TrueType BCI support. Red Hat does not, however, provide support for modified and recompiled packages. Note: For the FreeType 2 font engine, the CVE-2006-1861, CVE-2007-2754, and CVE-2008-1808 flaws were addressed via RHSA-2006:0500, RHSA-2007:0403, and RHSA-2008:0556 respectively. This update provides corresponding updates for the FreeType 1 font engine, included in the freetype packages distributed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and 4. Users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. The X server must be restarted (log out, then log back in) for this update to take effect. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 38867 published 2009-05-23 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2009-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/38867 title CentOS 3 / 4 : freetype (CESA-2009:0329) code #%NASL_MIN_LEVEL 80502 # # (C) Tenable Network Security, Inc. # # The descriptive text and package checks in this plugin were # extracted from Red Hat Security Advisory RHSA-2009:0329 and # CentOS Errata and Security Advisory 2009:0329 respectively. # include("compat.inc"); if (description) { script_id(38867); script_version("1.21"); script_cvs_date("Date: 2019/10/25 13:36:04"); script_cve_id("CVE-2006-1861", "CVE-2007-2754", "CVE-2008-1808", "CVE-2009-0946"); script_bugtraq_id(24074, 29637, 29639, 34550); script_xref(name:"RHSA", value:"2009:0329"); script_name(english:"CentOS 3 / 4 : freetype (CESA-2009:0329)"); script_summary(english:"Checks rpm output for the updated packages"); script_set_attribute( attribute:"synopsis", value:"The remote CentOS host is missing one or more security updates." ); script_set_attribute( attribute:"description", value: "Updated freetype packages that fix various security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and 4.

If a user loaded a carefully-crafted font file with an application linked against FreeType, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.

If a user loaded a carefully-crafted font file with an application linked against FreeType, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2008-1808) The CVE-2008-1808 flaw did not affect the freetype packages as distributed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and 4, as they are not compiled with TrueType BCI support. A fix for this flaw has been included in this update as users may choose to recompile the freetype packages in order to enable TrueType BCI support. Red Hat does not, however, provide support for modified and recompiled packages.

If a user loaded a carefully-crafted font file with an application linked against FreeType 2, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2009-0946) Chris Evans discovered multiple integer overflow flaws in the FreeType font engine. If a user loaded a carefully-crafted font file with an application linked against FreeType, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2006-1861) An integer overflow flaw was found in the way the FreeType font engine processed TrueType(r) Font (TTF) files. If a user loaded a carefully-crafted font file with an application linked against FreeType, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2007-2754) A flaw was discovered in the FreeType TTF font-file format parser when the TrueType virtual machine Byte Code Interpreter (BCI) is enabled. If a user loaded a carefully-crafted font file with an application linked against FreeType, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2008-1808) The CVE-2008-1808 flaw did not affect the freetype packages as distributed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and 4, as they are not compiled with TrueType BCI support. A fix for this flaw has been included in this update as users may choose to recompile the freetype packages in order to enable TrueType BCI support. Red Hat does not, however, provide support for modified and recompiled packages. Note: For the FreeType 2 font engine, the CVE-2006-1861, CVE-2007-2754, and CVE-2008-1808 flaws were addressed via RHSA-2006:0500, RHSA-2007:0403, and RHSA-2008:0556 respectively. This update provides corresponding updates for the FreeType 1 font engine, included in the freetype packages distributed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and 4. Users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. The X server must be restarted (log out, then log back in) for this update to take effect. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 67813 published 2013-07-12 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2013-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/67813 title Oracle Linux 3 / 4 : freetype (ELSA-2009-0329) NASL family Scientific Linux Local Security Checks NASL id SL_20090522_FREETYPE_ON_SL3_X.NASL description Tavis Ormandy of the Google Security Team discovered several integer overflow flaws in the FreeType 2 font engine.

NX and NX Node are vulnerable to this due to shipping XFree86 4.3.0, which includes the vulnerable FreeType code. Impact : A remote attacker could exploit these integer overflows by enticing a user to load a specially crafted PCF font file which might lead to the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user on the machine running the NX server. Workaround : There is no known workaround at this time. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 26980 published 2007-10-12 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2007-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/26980 title GLSA-200710-09 : NX 2.1: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code NASL family SuSE Local Security Checks NASL id SUSE_NX-4555.NASL description The XFree code contained in NX was prone to integer overflows (CVE-2006-1861) and insufficiently protected against specially crafted PCF files (CVE-2006-3467). last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 27510 published 2007-10-18 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2007-2019 Tenable Network Security, Inc. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/27510 title openSUSE 10 Security Update : NX (NX-4555)
