Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                         MDVSA-2012:122
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________

Package : icedtea-web
Date    : August 2, 2012
Affected: 2011., Enterprise Server 5.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

Multiple vulnerabilities has been discovered and corrected in
icedtea-web:

An uninitialized pointer use flaw was found in IcedTea-Web web
browser plugin.  A malicious web page could use this flaw make
IcedTea-Web browser plugin pass invalid pointer to a web browser.
Depending on the browser used, it may cause the browser to crash or
possibly execute arbitrary code (CVE-2012-3422).

It was discovered that the IcedTea-Web web browser plugin incorrectly
assumed that all strings provided by browser are NUL terminated,
which is not guaranteed by the NPAPI (Netscape Plugin Application
Programming Interface).  When used in a browser that does not NUL
terminate NPVariant NPStrings, this could lead to buffer over-read
or over-write, resulting in possible information leak, crash, or code
execution (CVE-2012-3423).

The updated packages have been upgraded to the 1.1.6 version which
is not affected by these issues.
