-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDKSA-2007:211 http://www.mandriva.com/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : pcre Date : November 8, 2007 Affected: 2007.1 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered by Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry in the way that pcre handled certain malformed regular expressions. If an application linked against pcre, such as Konqueror, parses a malicious regular expression, it could lead to the execution of arbitrary code as the user running the application. Updated packages have been patched to prevent this issue. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-1659 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-1660 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-1661 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-1662 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-4766 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-4767 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-4768 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Linux 2007.1: e3eadb5dc3ae91ffc735a0021bb4c3b8 2007.1/i586/libpcre-devel-7.3-0.1mdv2007.1.i586.rpm 8eee92b33ed6f6be95cae33249242dfa 2007.1/i586/libpcre0-7.3-0.1mdv2007.1.i586.rpm 42e1ac0e8188b5f142e645c1ff6bb44d 2007.1/i586/pcre-7.3-0.1mdv2007.1.i586.rpm a03dca7708aa437655a393b0fe66f3c0 2007.1/SRPMS/pcre-7.3-0.1mdv2007.1.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2007.1/X86_64: 370f8de2c9166883cbbcb2968b0575ec 2007.1/x86_64/lib64pcre-devel-7.3-0.1mdv2007.1.x86_64.rpm 306b2a144a25e1025d4ed02f3878b9dc 2007.1/x86_64/lib64pcre0-7.3-0.1mdv2007.1.x86_64.rpm 29b00561151987446eaaa3f0aaac5684 2007.1/x86_64/pcre-7.3-0.1mdv2007.1.x86_64.rpm a03dca7708aa437655a393b0fe66f3c0 2007.1/SRPMS/pcre-7.3-0.1mdv2007.1.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
