USN173-4 : python2.1, python2.2, python2.3, gnumeric vulnerabilities |

python2.1, python2.2, python2.3, gnumeric vulnerabilities Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : These remote packages are missing security patches : - gnumeric - gnumeric-common - gnumeric-doc - gnumeric-tests-extra - idle-python2.1 - idle-python2.2 - idle-python2.3 - python2.1 - python2.1-dev - python2.1-doc - python2.1-examples - python2.1-gdbm - python2.1-mpz - python2.1-tk - python2.1-xmlbase - python2.2 - python2.2-dev - python2.2-doc - python2.2-examples - python2.2-gdbm - python2.2-mpz - python2.2-tk - python2.2-xmlbase - python2.3 - python2.3-dev - python2.3-doc - [...] Description : USN-173-1 fixed a buffer overflow vulnerability in the PCRE library. However, it was found that the various python packages and gnumeric contain static copies of the library code, so these packages need to be updated as well. In gnumeric this bug could be exploited to execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user if the user was tricked into opening a specially crafted spreadsheet document. In python, the impact depends on the particular application that uses python's "re" (regular expression) module. In python server applications that process unchecked arbitrary regular expressions with the "re" module, this could potentially be exploited to remotely execute arbitrary code with the rights of the server. Solution : Upgrade to : - gnumeric-1.4.2-1ubuntu3.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) - gnumeric-common-1.4.2-1ubuntu3.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) - gnumeric-doc-1.4.2-1ubuntu3.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) - gnumeric-tests-extra-1.4.2-1ubuntu3.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) - idle-python2.1-2.1.3-24.ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - idle-python2.2-2.2.3dfsg-1ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) - idle-python2.3-2.3.5-2ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) - python2.1-2.1.3-24.ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - python2.1-dev-2.1.3-24.ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - python2.1-doc-2.1.3-24.ubuntu0.1 (Ubuntu 4.10) - python2.1 [...] Network Security Threat Level: High Networks Security ID: Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: Ubuntu Security Notice (C) 2005 Canonical, Inc. / NASL script (C) 2005 Michel Arboi |
