Debian DSA-1567-1 : blender - buffer overrun

medium Nessus Plugin ID 32141

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

Stefan Cornelius discovered a vulnerability in the Radiance High Dynamic Range (HDR) image parser in Blender, a 3D modelling application. The weakness could enable a stack-based buffer overflow and the execution of arbitrary code if a maliciously-crafted HDR file is opened, or if a directory containing such a file is browsed via Blender's image-open dialog.

Solution

Upgrade the blender packages.

For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 2.42a-7.1+etch1.
