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.

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 38870 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/38870 title RHEL 3 / 4 : freetype (RHSA-2009:0329) NASL family Red Hat Local Security Checks NASL id REDHAT-RHSA-2008-0556.NASL description Updated freetype packages that fix various security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, and 5.

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 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 VMware ESX Local Security Checks NASL id VMWARE_VMSA-2008-0014.NASL description I Security Issues a. Setting ActiveX kill bit Starting from this release, VMware has set the kill bit on its ActiveX controls. Setting the kill bit ensures that ActiveX controls cannot run in Internet Explorer (IE), and avoids security issues involving ActiveX controls in IE. See the Microsoft KB article 240797 and the related references on this topic. Security vulnerabilities have been reported for ActiveX controls provided by VMware when run in IE. Under specific circumstances, exploitation of these ActiveX controls might result in denial-of- service or can allow running of arbitrary code when the user browses a malicious Web site or opens a malicious file in IE browser. An attempt to run unsafe ActiveX controls in IE might result in pop-up windows warning the user. Note: IE can be configured to run unsafe ActiveX controls without prompting. VMware recommends that you retain the default settings in IE, which prompts when unsafe actions are requested. Earlier, VMware had issued knowledge base articles, KB 5965318 and KB 9078920 on security issues with ActiveX controls. To avoid malicious scripts that exploit ActiveX controls, do not enable unsafe ActiveX objects in your browser settings. As a best practice, do not browse untrusted Web sites as an administrator and do not click OK or Yes if prompted by IE to allow certain actions. VMware would like to thank Julien Bachmann, Shennan Wang, Shinnai, and Michal Bucko for reporting these issues to us. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the names CVE-2008-3691, CVE-2008-3692, CVE-2008-3693, CVE-2008-3694, CVE-2008-3695, CVE-2007-5438, and CVE-2008-3696 to the security issues with VMware ActiveX controls. b. VMware ISAPI Extension Denial of Service The Internet Server Application Programming Interface (ISAPI) is an API that extends the functionality of Internet Information Server (IIS). VMware uses ISAPI extensions in its Server product. One of the ISAPI extensions provided by VMware is vulnerable to a remote denial of service. By sending a malformed request, IIS might shut down. IIS 6.0 restarts automatically. However, IIS 5.0 does not restart automatically when its Startup Type is set to Manual. VMware would like to thank the Juniper Networks J-Security Security Research Team for reporting this issue to us. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2008-3697 to this issue. c. OpenProcess Local Privilege Escalation on Host System This release fixes a privilege escalation vulnerability in host systems. Exploitation of this vulnerability allows users to run arbitrary code on the host system with elevated privileges. VMware would like to thank Sun Bing from McAfee, Inc. for reporting this issue to us. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2008-3698 to this issue. d. Update to Freetype FreeType 2.3.6 resolves an integer overflow vulnerability and other vulnerabilities that can allow malicious users to run arbitrary code or might cause a denial-of-service after reading a maliciously crafted file. This release updates FreeType to 2.3.7. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.com) has assigned the names CVE-2008-1806, CVE-2008-1807, and CVE-2008-1808 to the issues resolved in Freetype 2.3.6. e. Update to Cairo Cairo 1.4.12 resolves an integer overflow vulnerability that can allow malicious users to run arbitrary code or might cause a denial-of-service after reading a maliciously crafted PNG file. This release updates Cairo to 1.4.14. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (cve.mitre.com) has assigned the name CVE-2007-5503 to this issue. f. VMware Consolidated Backup (VCB) command-line utilities may expose sensitive information VMware Consolidated Backup command-line utilities accept the user password through the -p command-line option. Users logged into the ESX service console or into the system that runs VCB could gain access to the username and password used by VCB command-line utilities when such commands are running. The ESX patch and the new version of VCB resolve this issue by providing an alternative way of passing the password used by VCB command-line utilities. VCB in ESX ---------- The following options are recommended for passing the password : 1. The password is specified in /etc/backuptools.conf (PASSWORD=xxxxx), and -p is not used in the command line. /etc/backuptools.conf file permissions are read/write only for root. 2. No password is specified in /etc/backuptools.conf and the -p option is not used in the command line. The user will be prompted to enter a password. ESX is not affected unless you use VCB. Stand-alone VCB --------------- The following options are recommended for passing the password : 1. The password is specified in config.js (PASSWORD=xxxxx), and -p is not used in the command line. The file permissions on config.js are read/write only for the administrator.
