TITLE:
mathTeX Multiple Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA35816

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/35816/

DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in mathTeX, which can be
exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Multiple boundary errors while processing HTTP arguments can be
exploited to cause stack-based buffer overflows and potentially
execute arbitrary code.

2) Input passed to mathtex.cgi is not properly verified before being
used in a "system()" call. This can be exploited to inject and
execute arbitrary shell commands via shell meta characters.

SOLUTION:
Update to a version released after 2009-07-13.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Chris Evans and Damien Miller from the Google Security Team, reported
via oCERT
