 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                         MDKSA-2006:057
 http://www.mandriva.com/security/
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Package : cairo
 Date    : March 20, 2006
 Affected: 2006.0
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Problem Description:
 
 GNOME Evolution allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service 
 (persistent client crash) via an attached text file that contains 
 "Content-Disposition: inline" in the header, and a very long line in
 the body, which causes the client to repeatedly crash until the e-mail
 message is manually removed, possibly due to a buffer overflow, as
 demonstrated using an XML attachment.
 
 The underlying issue is in libcairo, which is used by recent versions
 of Evolution for message rendering.
 
 The Corporate Desktop 3.0 version of Evolution does not use libcairo
 and is  not vulnerable to this issue.
 
 Updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
