- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA 972-1 security@debian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Martin Schulze February 15th, 2006 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : pdfkit.framework Vulnerability : buffer overflows Problem type : local (remote) Debian-specific: no CVE ID : CVE-2006-0301 SuSE researchers discovered heap overflow errors in xpdf, the Portable Document Format (PDF) suite, which is also present in pdfkit.framework, the GNUstep framework for rendering PDF content, and which can allow attackers to cause a denial of service by crashing the application or possibly execute arbitrary code. The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain pdfkit.framework packages. For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 0.8-2sarge2. For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 0.8-4 by switching to poppler. We recommend that you upgrade your pdfkit.framework 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.
