Package : file
Vulnerability : buffer overflow
Problem type : local (remote)
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2007-1536
CERT advisory : 606700
BugTraq ID : 23021
Debian Bug : 415362 416678
An integer underflow bug has been found in the file_printf function in
file, a tool to determine file types based analysis of file content.
The bug could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code by inducing a
local user to examine a specially crafted file that triggers a buffer
overflow.
For the stable distribution (sarge), this problem has been fixed in
version 4.12-1sarge1.
For the upcoming stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 4.17-5etch1.
For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
4.20-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your file 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.
Debian (testing)
- ----------------
Testing updates are available for alpha, amd64, arm, hppa, i386, ia64, m68k, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390 and sparc.
