Debian DLA-419-1 : gtk+2.0 security update

medium Nessus Plugin ID 88810

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

Gtk+2.0, a graphical user interface library, was susceptible to an integer overflow in its gdk_cairo_set_source_pixbuf function when allocating a large block of memory.

For Debian 6 'Squeeze', this issue has been fixed in gtk+2.0 version 2.20.1-2+deb6u1. We recommend you to upgrade your gtk+2.0 packages.

Learn more about the Debian Long Term Support (LTS) Project and how to apply these updates at: https://wiki.debian.org/LTS/

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
