-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 _______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2014:069 http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : perl-YAML-LibYAML Date : April 9, 2014 Affected: Business Server 1.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: Updated perl-YAML-LibYAML packages fix security vulnerabilities: Florian Weimer of the Red Hat Product Security Team discovered a heap-based buffer overflow flaw in LibYAML, a fast YAML 1.1 parser and emitter library. A remote attacker could provide a YAML document with a specially-crafted tag that, when parsed by an application using libyaml, would cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application (CVE-2013-6393). Ivan Fratric of the Google Security Team discovered a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability in LibYAML, a fast YAML 1.1 parser and emitter library. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted YAML document that, when parsed by an application using libyaml, would cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application (CVE-2014-2525). The perl-YAML-LibYAML package is being updated as it contains an embedded copy of LibYAML. _______________________________________________________________________ References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2013-6393 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-2525 http://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0154.html _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Business Server 1/X86_64: 8f1b7439ecd465d5eed8953b0b426a93 mbs1/x86_64/perl-YAML-LibYAML-0.380.0-2.2.mbs1.x86_64.rpm 66c410e66bb6b7dd1192017b480fd5ff mbs1/SRPMS/perl-YAML-LibYAML-0.380.0-2.2.mbs1.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
