- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : xli
Vulnerability : buffer overflow, input sanitising, integer overflow
Problem-Type : local (remote)
Debian-specific: no
CVE IDs : CAN-2001-0775 CAN-2005-0638 CAN-2005-0639
BugTraq ID : 3006
Debian Bug : 298039
Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in xli, an image viewer
for X11. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies
the following problems:
CAN-2001-0775
A buffer overflow in the decoder for FACES format images could be
exploited by an attacker to execute arbitrary code. This problem
has been fixed in xloadimage in DSA 069 already.
CAN-2005-0638
Tavis Ormandy of the Gentoo Linux Security Audit Team has reported
a flaw in the handling of compressed images, where shell
meta-characters are not adequately escaped.
CAN-2005-0639
Insufficient validation of image properties in have been
discovered which could potentially result in buffer management
errors.
For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 1.17.0-11woody1.
For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in
version 1.17.0-18.
We recommend that you upgrade your xli package.
