Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.51895 |
Category: | Red Hat Local Security Checks |
Title: | RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2005:303 |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2005:303. Sylpheed is a GTK+ based fast email client. A buffer overflow bug has been found in the way Sylpheed handles non-ASCII characters in the header of a message to which a victim replies. A carefully crafted email message could potentially allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on a victim's machine if they reply to such a message. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-0667 to this issue. Users of Sylpheed should upgrade to this updated package, which contains a backported patch, and is not vulnerable to this issue. Solution: Please note that this update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2005-303.html http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2005-0667 Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 5.1 |
