[USN-164-1] netpbm vulnerability



===========================================================
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-164-1            August 11, 2005
netpbm-free vulnerability
CAN-2005-2471
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog)
Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog)

The following packages are affected:

netpbm

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 2:10.0-5ubuntu0.1 (for Ubuntu 4.10), or 2:10.0-8ubuntu0.1 (for
Ubuntu 5.04).  In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to
effect the necessary changes.

Details follow:

Max Vozeler discovered that the the "pstopnm" conversion tool did not
use the -dSAFER option when calling ghostscript. This option prohibits
file operations and calling commands within PostScript code. This flaw
could be exploited by an attacker to execute arbitrary code if he
tricked an user (or an automatic server) into processing a specially
crafted PostScript document with pstopnm.

Updated packages for Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog):
