    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian Security Advisory DSA-1890-1 [email protected] http://www.debian.org/security/ Giuseppe Iuculano September 19, 2009 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Packages : wxwindows2.4 wxwidgets2.6 wxwidgets2.8
    Vulnerability : integer overflow
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Id : CVE-2009-2369


    Tielei Wang has discovered an integer overflow in wxWidgets, the wxWidgets Cross-platform C++ GUI toolkit, which allows the execution of arbitrary
    code via a crafted JPEG file.

    For the oldstable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version 2.4.5.1.1+etch1 for wxwindows2.4 and version 2.6.3.2.1.5+etch1 for wxwidgets2.6.

    For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 2.6.3.2.2-3+lenny1 for wxwidgets2.6 and version 2.8.7.1-1.1+lenny1 for wxwidgets2.8.

    For the testing distribution (squeeze), this problem will be fixed soon.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.8.7.1-2 for wxwidgets2.8 and will be fixed soon for
    wxwidgets2.6.


    We recommend that you upgrade your wxwidgets packages.
