Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

DirectFB was updated to fix two security issues.

The following vulnerabilities were fixed :

 - CVE-2014-2977: Multiple integer signedness errors could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via the Voodoo interface, which triggers a stack-based buffer overflow.

 - CVE-2014-2978: Remote attackers could cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via the Voodoo interface, which triggers an out-of-bounds write.

Solution

Update the affected DirectFB packages.
