-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2011:191 http://www.mandriva.com/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : libarchive Date : December 18, 2011 Affected: Enterprise Server 5.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was discovered in libarchive. If a user were tricked into expanding a specially-crafted ISO 9660 CD-ROM image or tar archive with an application using libarchive, it could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application (CVE-2011-1778). The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-1778 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Enterprise Server 5: feffb4e5514285ad0ae2cdda78d31ea9 mes5/i586/bsdtar-2.5.5-1.1mdvmes5.2.i586.rpm 2eec7b3ae4c3f8412232f5cc3ad5a3ce mes5/i586/libarchive2-2.5.5-1.1mdvmes5.2.i586.rpm 9d4fea3cde562e92728c08b8e58f9a62 mes5/i586/libarchive-devel-2.5.5-1.1mdvmes5.2.i586.rpm 1b48761b06202986a6c903ba04599c7e mes5/SRPMS/libarchive-2.5.5-1.1mdvmes5.2.src.rpm Mandriva Enterprise Server 5/X86_64: 40ddc9c92db2c3267ea44874cc318c9e mes5/x86_64/bsdtar-2.5.5-1.1mdvmes5.2.x86_64.rpm bc1d4171e3342384d193d8cfe2d7ccfe mes5/x86_64/lib64archive2-2.5.5-1.1mdvmes5.2.x86_64.rpm 34b0ec659f465bd91336f07f2a78957e mes5/x86_64/lib64archive-devel-2.5.5-1.1mdvmes5.2.x86_64.rpm 1b48761b06202986a6c903ba04599c7e mes5/SRPMS/libarchive-2.5.5-1.1mdvmes5.2.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
