-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:111 http://www.mandriva.com/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : evolution Date : June 10, 2008 Affected: 2008.0, 2008.1 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Alan Rad Pop of Secunia Research discovered the following two vulnerabilities in Evolution: Evolution did not properly validate timezone data when processing iCalendar attachments. If a user disabled the Itip Formatter plugin and viewed a crafted iCalendar attachment, an attacker could cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges (CVE-2008-1108). Evolution also did not properly validate the DESCRIPTION field when processing iCalendar attachments. If a user were tricked into accepting a crafted iCalendar attachment and replied to it from the calendar window, an attacker could cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges (CVE-2008-1109). In addition, Matej Cepl found that Evolution did not properly validate date fields when processing iCalendar attachments, which could lead to a denial of service if the user viewed a crafted iCalendar attachment with the Itip Formatter plugin disabled. Mandriva Linux has the Itip Formatter plugin enabled by default. The updated packages have been patched to prevent these issues. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-1108 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-1109 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Linux 2008.0: 86861fcbce9b5751c2f4c8f4e6076027 2008.0/i586/evolution-2.12.3-1.3mdv2008.0.i586.rpm 51304a01de8a3fdc8709a7ebefa419f5 2008.0/i586/evolution-devel-2.12.3-1.3mdv2008.0.i586.rpm 54309a365e4230d17af985752328c59e 2008.0/i586/evolution-mono-2.12.3-1.3mdv2008.0.i586.rpm e8c0063772b787f3cff03d4f228535ad 2008.0/i586/evolution-pilot-2.12.3-1.3mdv2008.0.i586.rpm ea799209d02c990b4ae47a44d3f8e941 2008.0/SRPMS/evolution-2.12.3-1.3mdv2008.0.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2008.0/X86_64: 342ef5c0e26207769e028e0c2d1e29fe 2008.0/x86_64/evolution-2.12.3-1.3mdv2008.0.x86_64.rpm 248c1d3c025775153305e61dbd933c73 2008.0/x86_64/evolution-devel-2.12.3-1.3mdv2008.0.x86_64.rpm 82f92a5998acf3dc78712bbe4ccae782 2008.0/x86_64/evolution-mono-2.12.3-1.3mdv2008.0.x86_64.rpm 1a65442d809e03ed76b8f176d78a3c03 2008.0/x86_64/evolution-pilot-2.12.3-1.3mdv2008.0.x86_64.rpm ea799209d02c990b4ae47a44d3f8e941 2008.0/SRPMS/evolution-2.12.3-1.3mdv2008.0.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2008.1: 90239c10aa2d019b3c576b41e01877c2 2008.1/i586/evolution-2.22.0-4.1mdv2008.1.i586.rpm 4fc0d51dd6dcfc4cf0c1e34ebbb5d795 2008.1/i586/evolution-devel-2.22.0-4.1mdv2008.1.i586.rpm 81588eabd76768bd283e8d8aecb00713 2008.1/i586/evolution-mono-2.22.0-4.1mdv2008.1.i586.rpm 9489207c3cec4c6faea8dcfcb036b75a 2008.1/i586/evolution-pilot-2.22.0-4.1mdv2008.1.i586.rpm 0ba6833324e7f3953552a1f1a2e7f253 2008.1/SRPMS/evolution-2.22.0-4.1mdv2008.1.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2008.1/X86_64: afb8093f30cb8b0f382fa6369bcaabcc 2008.1/x86_64/evolution-2.22.0-4.1mdv2008.1.x86_64.rpm 78951187acaa837e2f38bb7d505f24e0 2008.1/x86_64/evolution-devel-2.22.0-4.1mdv2008.1.x86_64.rpm f47238cf692dd3af540f5c66e0b8366e 2008.1/x86_64/evolution-mono-2.22.0-4.1mdv2008.1.x86_64.rpm 761533971e87da6da4d66b6fc968c652 2008.1/x86_64/evolution-pilot-2.22.0-4.1mdv2008.1.x86_64.rpm 0ba6833324e7f3953552a1f1a2e7f253 2008.1/SRPMS/evolution-2.22.0-4.1mdv2008.1.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
