CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT 
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

PACKAGE   : evolution
SUMMARY   : Several vulnerabilities
DATE      : 2003-05-14 16:09:00
ID        : CLA-2003:648
RELEVANT
RELEASES  : 7.0, 8, 9

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------

DESCRIPTION
 Evolution is a Gnome-based personal information manager (PIM). It
 includes email, address book, calendar and other integrated
 features.
 
 Core Security Technologies found[1] several vulnerabilities in
 Evolution <= 1.2.2 and in the gtkhtml library (which is used by
 Evolution and other gnome programs to render basic HTML).
 
 These vulnerabilities can be exploited by remote attackers (using
 specially crafted e-mails) to crash evolution, cause general system
 instability through resource starvation or to bypass some security
 restrictions.
 
 The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project has assigned
 the names CAN-2003-0128, CAN-2003-0129 and CAN-2003-0130 to the
 issues[2,3,4] discovered.
 
 In Conectiva Linux 7.0 and 8, Evolution is being upgraded to the
 1.0.3 version with patches to fix the vulnerabilities. Note that in
 order to upgrade Evolution in Conectiva Linux 7.0, several packages
 had to be added (Gnome components necessary to run the 1.0.3 version
 of Evolution that were not distributed with Conectiva Linux 7.0).
 These packages are included in this update.
 
 The Evolution package distributed with Conectiva Linux 9
 (evolution-1.2.2-28320cl) already has the fixes for its
 vulnerabilities [2,3]. For this version of Conectiva Linux, only the
 fix for the gtkhml vulnerability[4] is included.


SOLUTION
 All evolution users should upgrade.
 
 IMPORTANT: Conectiva Linux 7.0 users that want to perform this
 upgrade using apt must use the "dist-upgrade" command or explicitly
 list the packages in the "install" command. This is necessary because
 the "upgrade" command will not install the new dependencies.
