Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2004-289
2004-09-15
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Product     : Fedora Core 2
Name        : gtk2
Version     : 2.4.7                      
Release     : 2.4                  
Summary     : The GIMP ToolKit (GTK+), a library for creating GUIs for
X.
Description :
GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user
interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for
projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application
suites.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

During testing of a previously fixed flaw in Qt (CAN-2004-0691), a flaw
was
discovered in the BMP image processor of gtk2. An attacker could create
a
carefully crafted BMP file which would cause an application to enter an
infinite loop and not respond to user input when the file was opened by
a
victim. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
has assigned the name CAN-2004-0753 to this issue.

During a security audit Chris Evans discovered a stack and a heap
overflow
in the XPM image decoder. An attacker could create a carefully crafted
XPM
file which could cause an application linked with gtk2 to crash or
possibly
execute arbitrary code when the file was opened by a victim.
(CAN-2004-0782, CAN-2004-0783)

Chris Evans also discovered an integer overflow in the ICO image
decoder.
An attacker could create a carefully crafted ICO file which could cause
an
application linked with gtk2 to crash when the file was opened by a
victim.
(CAN-2004-0788)
