Xfce is a GTK+ 2 based desktop environment that allows to run a modern |
45 |
desktop environment on modest hardware. |

Gregory Andersen reported that Xfce4 panel does not correctly calculate |
51 |
memory boundaries, leading to a stack-based buffer overflow in the |
52 |
launcher_update_panel_entry() function (CVE-2007-6531). Daichi Kawahata |
53 |
reported libxfcegui4 did not copy provided values when creating |
54 |
"SessionClient" structs, possibly leading to access of freed memory |
55 |
areas (CVE-2007-6532). |

A remote attacker could entice a user to install a specially crafted |
61 |
"rc" to execute arbitrary code with file via long strings in the "Name" |
62 |
and "Comment" fields or via unspecified vectors involving the second |
63 |
vulnerability. |
64 |

<workaround> |

<p> |
68 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |

<resolution> |
72 |
<p> |
73 |
All Xfce4 panel users should upgrade to the latest version: |
74 |
</p> |
75 |
<code> |
76 |
# emerge --sync |
77 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=xfce-base/xfce4-panel-4.4.2"</code> |
78 |
<p> |
79 |
All libxfcegui4 users should upgrade to the latest version: |
80 |
</p> |
81 |
<code> |
82 |
# emerge --sync |
83 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=xfce-base/libxfcegui4-4.4.2"</code> |
84 |
<p> |
85 |
Please refer to the Upgrading section of the Xfce Configuration Guide |
86 |
in case you are upgrading from Xfce 4.2. |
