| Mandriva Linux Security Advisory - A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in how ImageMagick parsed XCF files. If ImageMagick opened a specially-crafted XCF file, it could be made to overwrite heap memory beyond the bounds of its allocated memory, potentially allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system running ImageMagick. Another heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in how ImageMagick processed certain malformed PCX images. If ImageMagick opened a specially-crafted PCX image file, an attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code on the system running ImageMagick. | | Homepage: | http://www.mandriva.com/security/ | | File Size: | 7839 | | Related CVE(s): | CVE-2008-1096, CVE-2008-1097 | | Last Modified: | May 9 13:43:27 2008 | | MD5 Checksum: | 80671fb91b231ddf51ff6f60aef286c4 |

| /// File Name: | 05.07.08-3.txt | Description:
| iDefense Security Advisory 05.07.08 - Remote exploitation of an integer signedness vulnerability in rdesktop, as included in various vendors' operating system distributions, allows attackers to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the logged-in user. The vulnerability exists within the code responsible for reallocating dynamic buffers. The rdesktop xrealloc() function uses a signed comparison to determine if the requested allocation size is less than 1. When this occurs, the function will incorrectly set the allocation size to be 1. This results in an improperly sized heap buffer being allocated, which can later be overflowed. iDefense confirmed the existence of this vulnerability in rdesktop version 1.5.0. Previous versions may also be affected. | | Homepage: | http://www.idefense.com/ | | File Size: | 3416 | | Related CVE(s): | CVE-2008-1803 | | Last Modified: | May 7 20:43:37 2008 | | MD5 Checksum: | c3320ef9f586bf2a8eadea9bdb952524 |

| /// File Name: | 05.07.08-2.txt | Description:
| iDefense Security Advisory 05.07.08 - Remote exploitation of a BSS overflow vulnerability in rdesktop, as included in various vendors' operating system distributions, allows attackers to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the logged-in user. The vulnerability exists within the code responsible for reading in an RDP redirect request. This request is used to redirect an RDP connection from one server to another. When parsing the redirect request, the rdesktop client reads several 32-bit integers from the request packet. These integers are then used to control the number of bytes read into statically allocated buffers. This results in several buffers located in the BSS section being overflowed, which can lead to the execution of arbitrary code. iDefense confirmed the existence of this vulnerability in rdesktop version 1.5.0. Previous versions may also be affected. | | Homepage: | http://www.idefense.com/ | | File Size: | 3480 | | Related CVE(s): | CVE-2008-1802 | | Last Modified: | May 7 20:42:49 2008 | | MD5 Checksum: | dcb778aa36d5093d53a1522ad73f6ceb |

| /// File Name: | 05.07.08-1.txt | Description:
| iDefense Security Advisory 05.07.08 - Remote exploitation of an integer underflow vulnerability in rdesktop, as included in various vendors' operating system distributions, allows attackers to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the logged-in user. The vulnerability exists within the code responsible for reading in an RDP request. When reading a request, a 16-bit integer value that represents the number of bytes that follow is taken from the packet. This value is then decremented by 4, and used to calculate how many bytes to read into a heap buffer. The subtraction operation can underflow, which will then lead to the heap buffer being overflowed. iDefense confirmed the existence of this vulnerability in rdesktop version 1.5.0. Previous versions may also be affected. | | Homepage: | http://www.idefense.com/ | | File Size: | 3393 | | Related CVE(s): | CVE-2008-1801 | | Last Modified: | May 7 20:42:04 2008 | | MD5 Checksum: | c018aff3b2b98000cb2a48058984a14d |
