Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.72019
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandriva Security Advisory MDVSA-2012:033 (libpng)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:
The remote host is missing an update to libpng
announced via advisory MDVSA-2012:033.

A vulnerability has been found and corrected in libpng:

A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way libpng
processed compressed chunks in PNG image files. An attacker could
create a specially-crafted PNG image file 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-2011-3045).

The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.

Affected: 2010.1, 2011., Enterprise Server 5.0

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