-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2012:008 http://www.mandriva.com/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : perl Date : January 18, 2012 Affected: 2010.1, 2011. _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in perl: Off-by-one error in the decode_xs function in Unicode/Unicode.xs in the Encode module before 2.44, as used in Perl before 5.15.6, might allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted Unicode string, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2011-2939). Eval injection in the Digest module before 1.17 for Perl allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary commands via the new constructor (CVE-2011-3597). The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-2939 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-3597 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Linux 2010.1: a660dcc681b704173977b78b4dc43c41 2010.1/i586/perl-5.10.1-10.2mdv2010.2.i586.rpm 668b200bbf88c5f7347c48afb87eeeaa 2010.1/i586/perl-base-5.10.1-10.2mdv2010.2.i586.rpm 8069e10bc5c68262c06d2a4e8b47bd3d 2010.1/i586/perl-devel-5.10.1-10.2mdv2010.2.i586.rpm c9181aa3608d8e66147916eb9d2aea73 2010.1/i586/perl-doc-5.10.1-10.2mdv2010.2.i586.rpm c4ae0e4afc100fae4847191914f24fe6 2010.1/i586/perl-suid-5.10.1-10.2mdv2010.2.i586.rpm 55afcd3b034232d067c3426093726e46 2010.1/SRPMS/perl-5.10.1-10.2mdv2010.2.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2010.1/X86_64: 7a906f6da5c2944a711341493dfb0540 2010.1/x86_64/perl-5.10.1-10.2mdv2010.2.x86_64.rpm 9224dee63ac4d5d3fce13e8d3940583f 2010.1/x86_64/perl-base-5.10.1-10.2mdv2010.2.x86_64.rpm 32b5bf046fca55f4f8afaf993716244d 2010.1/x86_64/perl-devel-5.10.1-10.2mdv2010.2.x86_64.rpm a1ece8459a135c623dbdf8d96f81bdef 2010.1/x86_64/perl-doc-5.10.1-10.2mdv2010.2.x86_64.rpm 2f7535cb9479f99ea5b370a86f1d89bf 2010.1/x86_64/perl-suid-5.10.1-10.2mdv2010.2.x86_64.rpm 55afcd3b034232d067c3426093726e46 2010.1/SRPMS/perl-5.10.1-10.2mdv2010.2.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2011: 11a242d72e1b80af300cb6029e3fe899 2011/i586/perl-5.12.3-8.1-mdv2011.0.i586.rpm 0e9f9f73545305446de47e93749e2749 2011/i586/perl-base-5.12.3-8.1-mdv2011.0.i586.rpm 3d2824c80363645e41af96300bf0af73 2011/i586/perl-devel-5.12.3-8.1-mdv2011.0.i586.rpm 989bbaf7bf4caf1047dd0a04c6fb2ac4 2011/i586/perl-doc-5.12.3-8.1-mdv2011.0.noarch.rpm ff748b5ac9db9e66a7104edcce994007 2011/SRPMS/perl-5.12.3-8.1.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2011/X86_64: 43e4ddb93c3538fe81e76480dd79c012 2011/x86_64/perl-5.12.3-8.1-mdv2011.0.x86_64.rpm 290de224b5706a026160ce520ead64dd 2011/x86_64/perl-base-5.12.3-8.1-mdv2011.0.x86_64.rpm cc131b0d903866d8fa2eeb72eb1c86f4 2011/x86_64/perl-devel-5.12.3-8.1-mdv2011.0.x86_64.rpm 6f3c4e5c0a4dce779c596266e594aaa0 2011/x86_64/perl-doc-5.12.3-8.1-mdv2011.0.noarch.rpm ff748b5ac9db9e66a7104edcce994007 2011/SRPMS/perl-5.12.3-8.1.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
