Foresight: tetex
|
12 February 2008
|
|
|
Previous versions of the tetex package are vulnerable to multiple issues,
the worst of which is believed to allow arbitrary code execution via
user-assisted vectors when dvips or dviljk are run of specially-crafted
files, or when loading malformed font data using t1lib. |
|
|
Foresight: gd
|
12 February 2008
|
|
|
Previous versions of the gd package are vulnerable to a possible Arbitrary Code Execution attack in which an attacker may use a maliciously crafted GIF file to trigger a buffer overflow. The libgd
library is not exposed via any privileged or remote interfaces within Foresight Linux proper. |
|
|
Foresight: perl
|
12 November 2007
|
|
|
Previous versions of the perl package contain a buffer overflow in the
regular expression parsing code which could allow an attacker to execute
arbitrary code via a program which uses perl to parse untrusted input as a
regular expression.
|
|
|
Foresight: pidgin
|
12 November 2007
|
|
|
Previous versions of pidgin are vulnerable to a denial-of-service when
pidgin has been configured to use HTML logging. Logging is not enabled by
default, so the default install of Foresight Linux is not vulnerable to
this issue. |
|
|
Previous versions of the ImageMagick package are vulnerable to multiple
attacks whereby an attacker might be able to execute arbitrary code by
coercing the user into opening specially-crafted files with ImageMagick.
|
|
|
Foresight: libpng
|
12 November 2007
|
|
|
Previous versions of the libpng package can cause applications to
crash when loading malformed PNG files. It is not currently known
that this vulnerability can be exploited to execute malicious code. |
|
|
Foresight: pcre
|
12 November 2007
|
|
|
Previous versions of the pcre package contain multiple vulnerabilities
which may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code.
The pcre library and utilities are not known to be exposed via any
privileged or remote interfaces within Foresight Linux by default, but many
applications linked to the pcre library are routinely exposed to untrusted
data. |
