LinPopUp is a graphical application that acts as a frontend to
|
||
|
|
Samba client messaging functions, allowing a Linux desktop to
|
||
|
|
communicate with a Microsoft Windows computer that runs Winpopup.

Stephen Dranger discovered that LinPopUp contains a buffer
|
||
|
|
overflow in string.c, triggered when replying to a remote user message.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||

<impact type="normal">
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
A remote attacker could craft a malicious message that, when
|
||
|
|
replied using LinPopUp, would exploit the buffer overflow. This would
|
||
|
|
result in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the
|
||
|
|
user running LinPopUp.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</impact>
|
||
|
|
<workaround>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

|
<p>
|
||
|
|
All LinPopUp users should upgrade to the latest version:
|

# emerge --sync
|

|

# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-im/linpopup-2.0.4-r1"</code>
