MGASA-2013-0006 Date: January 14th, 2013 Affected releases: 2 Description: Updated inkscape package fixes security vulnerability: An XML eXternal Entity (XXE) flaw was found in the way Inkscape before 0.48.4 performed rasterization of certain SVG images. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted SVG image that, when opened in inkscape would lead to arbitrary local file disclosure or denial of service (CVE-2012-5656). Updated Packages: inkscape-0.48.4-1.mga2 References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-5656 http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce... https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8624 https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Support/Advisories/MGASA-2013-...
