--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2004-357 2004-10-28 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 2 Name : kdegraphics Version : 3.2.2 Release : 1.1 Summary : K Desktop Environment - Graphics Applications Description : Graphics applications for the K Desktop Environment.

--------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
A problem with PDF handling was discovered by Chris Evans, and has been fixed. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (www.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0888 to this issue.
a number of buffer overflow bugs that affect libtiff have been found. The kfax application contains a copy of the libtiff code used for parsing TIFF files and is therefore affected by these bugs. An attacker who has the ability to trick a user into opening a malicious TIFF file could cause kfax to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0803 to this issue. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Thu Oct 28 2004 Than Ngo <than@xxxxxxxxxx> 7:3.2.2-1.1
