Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.71106 |
Category: | Red Hat Local Security Checks |
Title: | RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2012:0317 |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2012:0317. The libpng packages contain a library of functions for creating and manipulating PNG (Portable Network Graphics) image format files. A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in libpng. An attacker could create a specially-crafted PNG image that, when opened, could cause an application using libpng to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2011-3026) Users of libpng and libpng10 should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. All running applications using libpng or libpng10 must be restarted for the update to take effect. 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-2012-0317.html Risk factor : High |
