Red Hat Security Advisory 2012-0410-01
Posted Mar 23, 2012
Authored by Red Hat | Site access.redhat.com

Red Hat Security Advisory 2012-0410-01 - Raptor provides parsers for Resource Description Framework files. An XML External Entity expansion flaw was found in the way Raptor processed RDF files. If an application linked against Raptor were to open a specially-crafted RDF file, it could possibly allow a remote attacker to obtain a copy of an arbitrary local file that the user running the application had access to. A bug in the way Raptor handled external entities could cause that application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.

3. Description:

Raptor provides parsers for Resource Description Framework (RDF) files.

An XML External Entity expansion flaw was found in the way Raptor processed
RDF files. If an application linked against Raptor were to open a
specially-crafted RDF file, it could possibly allow a remote attacker to
obtain a copy of an arbitrary local file that the user running the
application had access to. A bug in the way Raptor handled external
entities could cause that application to crash or, possibly, execute
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
(CVE-2012-0037)
