Original credit to infamous41md (via idefense). http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-4513 second vulnerability: http://labs.idefense.com/intelligence/vulnerabilities/display.php?id=434 Both involve unchecked input from a file being multiplied, the first by a constant and the second by another unchecked user-input value. Exploitation would require enticing a user to open a malicious document, and would gain the rights of the user running wv. Solution is to upgrade to 1.2.3, although it looks like some folks are patching 1.2.1 (Ubuntu's sec notice on 2 Nov 2006).
cc'ing maintainer.
Pulling in herd for advise.
Added wv-1.2.3 . However there is #131686 , which is still an issue with wv 1.2.3 . Altough it seems to be an abiword problem, fixed in 2.4.6 (not in the tree yet).
Thx foser, any ETA on the new abiword ebuild?
I added wv-1.2.3-r1 which does no longer provide (now faulty) links to older library versions, forcing a revdep-rebuild, this should at least take care of #131686 . Makes this bug no longer dependant on an abiword update.
Thx foser. Arches please test and mark stable. Target keywords are: wv-1.2.3-r1.ebuild:KEYWORDS="x86 ppc sparc hppa alpha ia64 amd64 ppc64"
marked ppc64 stable
Stable for HPPA.
