DSA 2032-1: New libpng packages fix several vulnerabilities

Posted by Bob on: 04/11/2010 06:00 PM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

The Debian Security Team published a new security update for Debian GNU/Linux. Here the announcement:

Debian Security Advisory DSA-2032-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Giuseppe Iuculano
April 11, 2010 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : libpng
Vulnerability : several
Problem type : local (remote)
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2009-2042 CVE-2010-0205
Debian Bugs : 533676 572308


Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in libpng, a library for
reading and writing PNG files. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project identifies the following problems:

CVE-2009-2042

libpng does not properly parse 1-bit interlaced images with width values
that are not divisible by 8, which causes libpng to include
uninitialized bits in certain rows of a PNG file and might allow remote
attackers to read portions of sensitive memory via "out-of-bounds
pixels" in the file.


CVE-2010-0205

libpng does not properly handle compressed ancillary-chunk data that has
a disproportionately large uncompressed representation, which allows
remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU
consumption, and application hang) via a crafted PNG file


For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.2.27-2+lenny3.

For the testing (squeeze) and unstable (sid) distribution, these
problems have been fixed in version 1.2.43-1

We recommend that you upgrade your libpng package.

Upgrade instructions
- --------------------

wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
