18 Synopsis
19 ========
20
21 Multiple vulnerabilities in Blender might result in the remote
22 execution of arbitrary code.
23
24 Background
25 ==========
26
27 Blender is a 3D creation, animation and publishing program.
28
29 Affected packages
30 =================
31
32 -------------------------------------------------------------------
33 Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
34 -------------------------------------------------------------------
35 1 media-gfx/blender < 2.43-r2 >= 2.43-r2

37 Description
38 ===========
39
40 Stefan Cornelius (Secunia Research) reported a boundary error within
41 the imb_loadhdr() function in in the file
42 source/blender/imbuf/intern/radiance_hdr.c when processing RGBE images
43 (CVE-2008-1102). Multiple vulnerabilities involving insecure usage of
44 temporary files have also been reported (CVE-2008-1103).
45
46 Impact
47 ======
48
49 A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file
50 (.hdr or .blend), possibly resulting in the remote execution of
51 arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
52
53 Workaround
54 ==========
55
56 There is no known workaround at this time.
57
58 Resolution
59 ==========
60
61 All Blender users should upgrade to the latest version:
62
63 # emerge --sync
64 # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-gfx/blender-2.43-r2"
