[USN-390-1] evince vulnerability



=========================================================== 
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-390-1          November 30, 2006
evince vulnerability
CVE-2006-5864
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 5.10
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Ubuntu 6.10

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 5.10:
  evince                                   0.4.0-0ubuntu4.2

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
  evince                                   0.5.2-0ubuntu3.1

Ubuntu 6.10:
  evince                                   0.6.1-0ubuntu1.1

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.

Details follow:

A buffer overflow was discovered in the PostScript processor included in 
evince.  By tricking a user into opening a specially crafted PS file, an 
attacker could crash evince or execute arbitrary code with the user's 
privileges.
