Title:Mandriva Update for rpm MDVSA-2011:143 (rpm)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'rpm'; package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'rpm'
package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Multiple flaws were found in the way the RPM library parsed package
headers. An attacker could create a specially-crafted RPM package that,
when queried or installed, would cause rpm to crash or, potentially,
execute arbitrary code (CVE-2011-3378).

Additionally for Mandriva Linux 2009.0 and Mandriva Linux Enterprise
Server 5 updated perl-URPM and lzma (xz v5) packages are being provided
to support upgrading to Mandriva Linux 2011.

The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.

Affected Software/OS:
rpm on Mandriva Linux 2009.0,
Mandriva Linux 2009.0/X86_64,
Mandriva Linux 2010.1,
Mandriva Linux 2010.1/X86_64,
Mandriva Enterprise Server 5,
Mandriva Enterprise Server 5/X86_64

Solution:
Please Install the Updated Packages.
