[USN-83-2] LessTif 1 vulnerabilities

[Martin Pitt]

===========================================================
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-83-2		 September 12, 2005
lesstif1-1 vulnerabilities
CAN-2004-0914
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog)

The following packages are affected:

lesstif1

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 1:0.93.94-4ubuntu1.4.  In general, a standard system upgrade is
sufficient to effect the necessary changes.

Details follow:

USN-83-1 fixed some vulnerabilities in the "lesstif2" library. The
older "lesstif1" library was also affected, however, a fix was not yet
available at that time. This USN fixes the flaws for lesstif1.

Please note that there are no supported applications that use this
library, so this only affects you if you use third-party applications
which use lesstif1.

For your convenience, here is the relevant part of the USN-83-1
description:

  Several vulnerabilities have been found in the XPM image decoding
  functions of the LessTif library. If an attacker tricked a user into
  loading a malicious XPM image with an application that uses LessTif,
  he could exploit this to execute arbitrary code in the context of
  the user opening the image.

  Ubuntu does not contain any server applications using LessTif, so
  there is no possibility of privilege escalation.
