Severity: Normal
Title: lighttpd: Denial of Service
Date: June 03, 2010
Bugs: #303213
ID: 201006-17

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Synopsis
========

A processing error in lighttpd might result in a Denial of Service
condition.

Background
==========

lighttpd is a lightweight high-performance web server.

Affected packages
=================

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 www-servers/lighttpd < 1.4.25-r1 >= 1.4.25-r1

Description
===========

Li Ming reported that lighttpd does not properly process packets that
are sent overly slow.

Impact
======

A remote attacker might send specially crafted packets to a server
running lighttpd, possibly resulting in a Denial of Service condition
via host memory exhaustion.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All lighttpd users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
">=www-servers/lighttpd-1.4.25-r1"

Bugs: #292130
ID: 201006-16

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Synopsis
========

The GD library is prone to a buffer overflow vulnerability.

Background
==========

GD is a graphic library for fast image creation.

Affected packages
=================

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 media-libs/gd < 2.0.35-r1 >= 2.0.35-r1

Description
===========

Tomas Hoger reported that the _gdGetColors() function in gd_gd.c does
not properly verify the colorsTotal struct member, possibly leading to
a buffer overflow.

Impact
======

A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted image
file with a program using the GD library, possibly resulting in the
remote execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user
running the application, or a Denial of Service condition.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All GD users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/gd-2.0.35-r1"

NOTE: This is a legacy GLSA. Updates for all affected architectures are
available since November 21, 2009. It is likely that your system is
already no longer affected by this issue.

Bugs: #275397
ID: 201006-15

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Synopsis
========

Multiple integer overflow errors in XEmacs might allow remote,
user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Background
==========

XEmacs is a highly extensible and customizable text editor.

Affected packages
=================

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 app-editors/xemacs < 21.4.22-r1 >= 21.4.22-r1

Description
===========

Tielei Wang reported multiple integer overflow vulnerabilities in the
tiff_instantiate(), png_instantiate() and jpeg_instantiate() functions
in glyphs-eimage.c, all possibly leading to heap-based buffer
overflows.

Impact
======

A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted TIFF,
JPEG or PNG file using XEmacs, possibly resulting in the remote
execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the
application, or a Denial of Service condition.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All XEmacs users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-editors/xemacs-21.4.22-r1"

NOTE: This is a legacy GLSA. Updates for all affected architectures are

ID: 201006-18

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Synopsis
========

The Oracle JDK and JRE are vulnerable to multiple unspecified
vulnerabilities.

Background
==========

The Oracle Java Development Kit (JDK) (formerly known as Sun JDK) and
the Oracle Java Runtime Environment (JRE) (formerly known as Sun JRE)
provide the Oracle Java platform (formerly known as Sun Java Platform).

Affected packages
=================

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 dev-java/sun-jre-bin < 1.6.0.20 >= 1.6.0.20
2 dev-java/sun-jdk < 1.6.0.20 >= 1.6.0.20
3 app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-java < 1.6.0.20 >= 1.6.0.20
-------------------------------------------------------------------
3 affected packages on all of their supported architectures.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Description
===========

Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in the Oracle Java
implementation. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below and
the associated Oracle Critical Patch Update Advisory for details.

Impact
======

A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to cause
unspecified impact, possibly including remote execution of arbitrary
code.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All Oracle JRE 1.6.x users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-java/sun-jre-bin-1.6.0.20"

All Oracle JDK 1.6.x users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-java/sun-jdk-1.6.0.20"

All users of the precompiled 32bit Oracle JRE 1.6.x should upgrade to
the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
">=app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-java-1.6.0.20"

All Oracle JRE 1.5.x, Oracle JDK 1.5.x, and precompiled 32bit Oracle
JRE 1.5.x users are strongly advised to unmerge Java 1.5:

# emerge --unmerge =app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-java-1.5*
# emerge --unmerge =dev-java/sun-jre-bin-1.5*
# emerge --unmerge =dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5*

Gentoo is ceasing support for the 1.5 generation of the Oracle Java
Platform in accordance with upstream. All 1.5 JRE versions are masked
and will be removed shortly. All 1.5 JDK versions are marked as
"build-only" and will be masked for removal shortly. Users are advised
to change their default user and system Java implementation to an
unaffected version. For example:

# java-config --set-system-vm sun-jdk-1.6

For more information, please consult the Gentoo Linux Java
documentation.
