Background ========== Evolution is a GNOME groupware application similar to Microsoft Outlook. Affected packages ================= ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 mail-client/evolution <= 2.0.2 >= 2.0.2-r1 Description =========== Max Vozeler discovered an integer overflow in the camel-lock-helper application, which is installed as setgid mail by default. Impact ====== A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute malicious code with the privileges of the 'mail' group. A remote attacker could also setup a malicious POP server to execute arbitrary code when an Evolution user connects to it. Workaround ========== There is no known workaround at this time. Resolution ========== All Evolution users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose # ">=mail-client/evolution-2.0.2-r1" References ========== [ 1 ] CAN-2005-0102 http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2005-0102 Availability ============ This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-200501-35.xml Concerns? ========= Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.
