Multiple integer overflows in JasPer 1.900.1 might allow context-dependent attackers to have an unknown impact via a crafted image file, related to integer multiplication for memory allocation.

New jasper packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, 14.1, and -current to fix security issues.

Updated rhevm-spice-client packages that fix multiple security issues, several bugs, and add one enhancement are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager 3.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Important security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager provides access to virtual machines using SPICE. These SPICE client packages provide the SPICE client and usbclerk service for both Windows 32-bit operating systems and Windows 64-bit operating systems.

This update adds support for the TLS Fallback Signaling Cipher Suite Value (TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV), which can be used to prevent protocol downgrade attacks against applications which re-connect using a lower SSL/TLS protocol version when the initial connection indicating the highest supported protocol version fails.

This can prevent a forceful downgrade of the communication to SSL 3.0.
The SSL 3.0 protocol was found to be vulnerable to the padding oracle attack when using block cipher suites in cipher block chaining (CBC) mode. This issue is identified as CVE-2014-3566, and also known under the alias POODLE. This SSL 3.0 protocol flaw will not be addressed in a future update; it is recommended that users configure their applications to require at least TLS protocol version 1.0 for secure communication.

For additional information about this flaw, see the Knowledgebase article at https://access.redhat.com/articles/1232123

Multiple flaws were found in the way JasPer decoded JPEG 2000 image files. A specially crafted file could cause an application using JasPer to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-8138, CVE-2014-8157, CVE-2014-8158, CVE-2014-9029, CVE-2014-8137, CVE-2011-4516, CVE-2011-4517, CVE-2008-3520, CVE-2008-3522)

Red Hat would like to thank oCERT for reporting CVE-2014-8137, CVE-2014-8138, CVE-2014-8157, CVE-2014-8158, CVE-2014-9029, CVE-2011-4516, and CVE-2011-4517. oCERT acknowledges Jose Duart of the Google Security Team as the original reporter of CVE-2014-8137 and CVE-2014-8138; and pyddeh as the original reporter of CVE-2014-8157 and CVE-2014-8158.

The mingw-openssl and mingw-jasper packages have been upgraded to the latest upstream version, which provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous version. (BZ#1187585)

This update also fixes the following bugs :

* Previously, a guest system installed with tools incorrectly always started in full screen mode, even when the 'Open in Full Screen' option was unchecked in console options. Now, when connecting in window mode with the option unchecked, the guest system starts in a window as expected. (BZ#1172126)

* Prior to this update, copying and pasting of images from the client to the guest did not work when spice-gtk was built from upstream. Now, images can be copied and pasted without problems. (BZ#1187270)

In addition, this update adds the following enhancement :

* Administrators now have the option of automatic multiuser installation of virt-viewer onto many client workstations.
(BZ#1187272)

All rhevm-spice-client users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which correct these issues and add these enhancement.

From Red Hat Security Advisory 2009:0012 :

Updated netpbm packages that fix several security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and 5.

This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

The netpbm package contains a library of functions for editing and converting between various graphics file formats, including .pbm (portable bitmaps), .pgm (portable graymaps), .pnm (portable anymaps), .ppm (portable pixmaps), and others.

An input validation flaw and multiple integer overflows were discovered in the JasPer library providing support for JPEG-2000 image format and used in the jpeg2ktopam and pamtojpeg2k converters. An attacker could create a carefully-crafted JPEG file which could cause jpeg2ktopam to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code as the user running jpeg2ktopam. (CVE-2007-2721, CVE-2008-3520)

All users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages which contain backported patches which resolve these issues.

Fedora reports :

JasPer fails to properly decode marker segments and other sections in malformed JPEG2000 files. Malformed inputs can cause heap buffer overflows which in turn may result in execution of attacker-controlled code.

Multiple security vulnerabilities has been identified and fixed in netpbm :

Multiple integer overflows in JasPer 1.900.1 might allow context-dependent attackers to have an unknown impact via a crafted image file, related to integer multiplication for memory allocation (CVE-2008-3520).

Buffer overflow in the jas_stream_printf function in libjasper/base/jas_stream.c in JasPer 1.900.1 might allow context-dependent attackers to have an unknown impact via vectors related to the mif_hdr_put function and use of vsprintf (CVE-2008-3522).

pamperspective in Netpbm before 10.35.48 does not properly calculate a window height, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted image file that triggers an out-of-bounds read (CVE-2008-4799).

Packages for 2008.0 are provided for Corporate Desktop 2008.0 customers

This update fixes this vulnerability.

Multiple security vulnerabilities has been identified and fixed in ghostscript :

A buffer underflow in Ghostscript's CCITTFax decoding filter allows remote attackers to cause denial of service and possibly to execute arbitrary by using a crafted PDF file (CVE-2007-6725).

Buffer overflow in Ghostscript's BaseFont writer module allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly to execute arbitrary code via a crafted Postscript file (CVE-2008-6679).

Multiple interger overflows in Ghostsript's International Color Consortium Format Library (icclib) allows attackers to cause denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code by using either a PostScript or PDF file with crafte embedded images (CVE-2009-0583, CVE-2009-0584).

Multiple interger overflows in Ghostsript's International Color Consortium Format Library (icclib) allows attackers to cause denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code by using either a PostScript or PDF file with crafte embedded images. Note: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2009-0583 (CVE-2009-0792).

Heap-based overflow in Ghostscript's JBIG2 decoding library allows attackers to cause denial of service and possibly to execute arbitrary code by using a crafted PDF file (CVE-2009-0196).

Multiple integer overflows in JasPer 1.900.1 might allow context-dependent attackers to have an unknown impact via a crafted image file, related to integer multiplication for memory allocation (CVE-2008-3520).

Buffer overflow in the jas_stream_printf function in libjasper/base/jas_stream.c in JasPer 1.900.1 might allow context-dependent attackers to have an unknown impact via vectors related to the mif_hdr_put function and use of vsprintf (CVE-2008-3522).

Previousely the ghostscript packages were statically built against a bundled and private copy of the jasper library. This update makes ghostscript link against the shared system jasper library which makes it easier to address presumptive future security issues in the jasper library.

The updated packages have been patched to prevent this.

Update :

Packages for 2008.0 are provided for Corporate Desktop 2008.0 customers

It was discovered that JasPer did not correctly handle memory allocation when parsing certain malformed JPEG2000 images. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted image with an application that uses libjasper, an attacker could cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges. (CVE-2008-3520)

It was discovered that JasPer created temporary files in an insecure way. Local users could exploit a race condition and cause a denial of service in libjasper applications. (CVE-2008-3521)

It was discovered that JasPer did not correctly handle certain formatting operations. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted image with an application that uses libjasper, an attacker could cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200812-18 (JasPer: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code)

    Marc Espie and Christian Weisgerber have discovered multiple     vulnerabilities in JasPer:
    Multiple integer overflows might allow for insufficient memory     allocation, leading to heap-based buffer overflows (CVE-2008-3520).
    The jas_stream_printf() function in libjasper/base/jas_stream.c uses     vsprintf() to write user-provided data to a static to a buffer, leading     to an overflow (CVE-2008-3522).
  Impact :

    Remote attackers could entice a user or automated system to process     specially crafted jpeg2k files with an application using JasPer,     possibly leading to the execution of arbitrary code.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

Multiple, potentially dangerous integer overflows, buffer overflows and a problem with temporary files have been fixed. (CVE-2008-3520 / CVE-2008-3521 / CVE-2008-3522)
