MGASA-2012-0191 Date: August 2nd, 2012 Affected releases: 1, 2 Description: Updated flightgear and simgear packages fix security vulnerability: Multiple buffer overflows in FlightGear 2.6 and earlier and SimGear 2.6 and earlier allow user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a (1) long string in a rotor tag of an aircraft xml model to the Rotor::getValueforFGSet function in src/FDM/YASim/Rotor.cpp or (2) a crafted UDP packet to the SGSocketUDP::read function in simgear/simgear/simgear/io/sg_socket_udp.cxx (CVE-2012-2091). Multiple format string vulnerabilities in FlightGear 2.6 and earlier and SimGear 2.6 and earlier allow user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in certain data chunk values in an aircraft xml model to (1) fgfs/flightgear/src/Cockpit/panel.cxx or (2) fgfs/flightgear/src/Network/generic.cxx, or (3) a scene graph model to simgear/simgear/scene/model/SGText.cxx (CVE-2012-2090). Updated Packages: Mageia 1: flightgear-2.0.0-4.2.mga1 lib(64)simgear2.0.0-2.0.0-3.1.mga1 lib(64)simgear-devel-2.0.0-3.1.mga1 Mageia 2: flightgear-2.6.0-2.1.mga2 simgear-devel-2.6.0-1.1.mga2 References: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-2090 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-2091 http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce... http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce... https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6423 https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Support/Advisories/MGASA-2012-...
