Description David Walser 2014-08-25 20:25:20 CEST

Fedora has issued an advisory on August 23:
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce/2014-August/136989.html

Patched packages uploaded for Mageia 3, Mageia 4, and Cauldron.

Note that this issue also affects PHP (see Bug 13964).

Advisory:
========================

Updated file packages fix security vulnerability:

A flaw was found in the way file uses cdf_read_property_info function when
checks stream offsets for certain Composite Document Format (CDF). An
insufficient input validation flaw for p and q minimal and maximal value,
leads to a pointer overflow. This issue only affects 32bit systems
(CVE-2014-3587).
