|
|
Greg Roelofs has reported multiple input validation errors in XV
|
|
image decoders. Tavis Ormandy of the Gentoo Linux Security Audit Team
|
|
has reported insufficient validation in the PDS (Planetary Data System)
|
|
image decoder, format string vulnerabilities in the TIFF and PDS
|
|
decoders, and insufficient protection from shell meta-characters in
|
|
malformed filenames.

|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
Successful exploitation would require a victim to view a specially
|
|
created image file using XV, potentially resulting in the execution of
|
|
arbitrary code.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

</p>
|

</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All XV users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|

|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-gfx/xv-3.10a-r11"</code>
