    - Resolves: #224610 CVE-2007-0455 gd buffer overrun

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

Buffer overflow in the gdImageStringFTEx function in gdft.c in the GD Graphics Library 2.0.33 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted string with a JIS encoded font.

Libwmf uses an embedded copy of the gd source and may also be affected by this issue.

Packages have been patched to correct this issue.

Tetex 3.x uses an embedded copy of the gd source and may also be affected by this issue (CVE-2007-0455).

A buffer overflow in the open_sty function for makeindex in Tetex could allow user-assisted remote attackers to overwrite files and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long filename (CVE-2007-0650).

The updated packages have been patched to prevent these issues.

Updated PHP packages that fix several security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language commonly used with the Apache HTTP Web server.

A flaw was found in the way the mbstring extension set global variables. A script which used the mb_parse_str() function to set global variables could be forced to enable the register_globals configuration option, possibly resulting in global variable injection.
(CVE-2007-1583)

A heap based buffer overflow flaw was discovered in PHP's gd extension. A script that could be forced to process WBMP images from an untrusted source could result in arbitrary code execution.
(CVE-2007-1001)

A buffer over-read flaw was discovered in PHP's gd extension. A script that could be forced to write arbitrary string using a JIS font from an untrusted source could cause the PHP interpreter to crash.
(CVE-2007-0455)

A flaw was discovered in the way PHP's mail() function processed header data. If a script sent mail using a Subject header containing a string from an untrusted source, a remote attacker could send bulk e-mail to unintended recipients. (CVE-2007-1718)

Users of PHP should upgrade to these updated packages which contain backported patches to correct these issues.

New libwmf packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, 14.1, 14.2, and -current to fix security issues.

The remote BIG-IP device is missing a patch required by a security advisory.

The remote host is running a version of PHP lower than 4.4.7 or 5.2.2.  This version is vulnerable to a number of remote issues.  At least one of these issues is related to a buffer overflow attack.  An attacker exploiting these flaws would be able to impact confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
