Tetex includes xpdf code, so it is vulnerable to :
- CAN-2004-0888 and CAN-2004-0889 and 64 bit issues that were found on these
xpdf2-style patches for these 2 can be found in app-text/pdftohtml files
xpdf3-style patches for these 2 can be found in gnustep-libs/pdfkit files
- CAN-2004-1125 (see bug 75191)
Tetex also includes tmpfile vulns in "xdvizilla", see attached patch.
text-markup team, please apply patches and bump.
Mandrake Advisory: MDKSA-2004:166
Ubuntu Security Notice: USN-51-1
text-markup team: please apply patches and bump
I don't have time to do this until 17 Jan. Sorry for that.
(It includes several patches and we need to check tetex,
ptex and cstetex)
Could somebody else from text-markup team apply these patches?
Mamoru: I tried to ask to other text-markup members but it seems only you can
do it :/ If you know someone else please contact him/her and ask for help...
since I didn't have much success asking for help myself.
Matsuu: you're missing the CAN-2004-1125 fix. Something like
app-text/pdftohtml/pdftohtml-xpdf-3.00pl2-CAN-2004-1125.patch should be applied
too.
Matsuu, you should commit new ebuilds in portage, as ~
Please also include xpdf-3.00pl3.patch from bug 77888

archs, please mark stable.
app-text/tetex-2.0.2-r5 stable on amd64, I'll have to find someone else to test
ptex
app-text/ptex-3.1.4-r2 and app-text/tetex-2.0.2-r5 stable on ppc64
Tetex good for sparc. Builds, installs, and creates correct output.
I cannot comment on cstetex or ptex, and am leaving them for someone who knows what they are.
ptex doesn't build for me... :-/
i can't confirm kugelfang's issue, it works fine here so i marked it stable
tetex and ptex stable on ppc.
We just wait on sparc testing of ptex to issue the GLSA.

arm, hppa, ia64, ppc-macos, s390: please mark those stable to benefit from GLSA
