Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.66759
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandriva Security Advisory MDVSA-2010:019 (gzip)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:
The remote host is missing an update to gzip
announced via advisory MDVSA-2010:019.

A vulnerability has been found and corrected in gzip:

An integer underflow leading to array index error was found in the
way gzip used to decompress files / archives, compressed with the
Lempel-Ziv-Welch (LZW) compression algorithm. A remote attacker could
provide a specially-crafted LZW compressed gzip archive, which once
decompressed by a local, unsuspecting user would lead to gzip crash,
or, potentially to arbitrary code execution with the privileges of
the user running gzip (CVE-2010-0001).

The updated packages have been patched to correct thies issue.

Affected: Corporate 4.0

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
