Mandriva Linux Security Advisory : libcdio (MDVSA-2008:037)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 36449

Synopsis

The remote Mandriva Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

A stack-based buffer overflow was discovered in libcdio that allowed context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (core dump) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a disk or image file that contains a long joliet file name.

In addition, a fix for failed UTF-8 conversions that would cause a segfault on certain ISOs was also fixed.

The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
