Synopsis:          Important: evolution28 security
update
Advisory ID:       RHSA-2008:0515-01
Product:           Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Advisory URL:     
https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2008-0515.html

CVE Names:         CVE-2008-1108 CVE-2008-1109
=====================================================================

1. Summary:

Updated evolution28 packages that address
two buffer overflow
vulnerabilities are now available for Red
Hat Enterprise Linux 4.

This update has been rated as having
important security impact by the Red
Hat Security Response Team.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 4 -
i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop version 4
- i386, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 4 -
i386, ia64, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 4 -
i386, ia64, x86_64

3. Description:

Evolution is the integrated collection of
e-mail, calendaring, contact
management, communications and personal
information management (PIM) tools
for the GNOME desktop environment.

A flaw was found in the way Evolution
parsed iCalendar timezone attachment
data. If the Itip Formatter plug-in was
disabled and a user opened a mail
with a carefully crafted iCalendar
attachment, arbitrary code could be
executed as the user running Evolution.
(CVE-2008-1108)

Note: the Itip Formatter plug-in, which
allows calendar information
(attachments with a MIME type of
"text/calendar") to be displayed as part
of the e-mail message, is enabled by
default.

A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found
in the way Evolution parsed
iCalendar attachments with an overly long
"DESCRIPTION" property string. If
a user responded to a carefully crafted
iCalendar attachment in a
particular way, arbitrary code could be
executed as the user running
Evolution. (CVE-2008-1109).

The particular response required to trigger
this vulnerability was as
follows:

1. Receive the carefully crafted iCalendar
attachment.
2. Accept the associated meeting.
3. Open the calender the meeting was in.
4. Reply to the sender.

Red Hat would like to thank Alin Rad Pop of
Secunia Research for
responsibly disclosing these issues.

All Evolution users should upgrade to these
updated packages, which contain
backported patches which resolves these
issues.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure that
all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been
applied.  

This update is available via Red Hat
Network.  Details on how to use
the Red Hat Network to apply this update
are available at
